    An RLC series circuit with \(\displaystyle R=600Ω, L=30mH,\) and \(\displaystyle C=0.050μF\) is driven by an ac source whose frequency and voltage amplitude are 500 Hz and 50 V, respectively.

    (a) What is the impedance of the circuit?

    (b) What is the amplitude of the current in the circuit?

    (c) What is the phase angle between the emf of the source and the current?
