6.4 Circuits Involving Two Energy Storage Elements cont.

Example 6-8 cont.

Series LC Interpretation:

a = RTh / L = 0

b = 1 / (LC) = 1 \

p2 + 1 = 0 (Char. Eqn.)

Parallel LC Interpretation:

a = 1 / (RThC) = 0

b = 1 / (LC) = 1 \

p2 + 1 = 0 (Char. Eqn.)

N.B.: Both v2(t) and i(t) have the same Characteristic Equation (harmonic oscillator).
