Resonance, power and power factor
Why this is asked: At series-LCR resonance, impedance is at its minimum (just R) and current is maximum, with the circuit behaving as purely resistive — don't confuse this with parallel resonance, where impedance peaks instead. A pure L or C dissipates zero average power over a cycle.
