Info

Connect an inductor, capacitor, and resistor mounted on a wooden board. Connect in series with a function generator and measure across the resistor with an oscilloscope. As the function generator sweeps over the resonance, the waveform grows and shrinks on the scope. Or, connect L and C in parallel to show a resonance dip. Or use RL or RC alone to show monotonic frequency dependence and find f3dB points.
