The rapid exponential decay in just a few cycles of the charge on the plates of capacitor in an RLC circuit might due to:
A) a large inductance
B) a large capacitance
C) a small capacitance
D) a large resistance
E) a small resistance

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A large resistance in an RLC circuit causes rapid energy dissipation, leading to exponential decay of the charge on the capacitor plates.
