The two values of s in Eq. (5) indicate that there are two possible solutions in
Eq. (6); that is,
Natural response of series RLC;
1.3. The Source-Free Series RLC Circuits
There are three types of solutions;
Overdamped Case (∝> 𝝎𝟎 )
İn this situation;
𝑠1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑠2 negative and real

Under Damped Case (∝< 𝝎𝟎 )
EXAMPLE 1.3.
R=40 Ω, L=4H and C=1/4 F. Calculate the characteristic
roots of the circuit. Is the natural response overdamped,
underdamped, or critically damped?
EXAMPLE 1.4.
Find i(t) in the circuit. Assume that the circuit
has reached steady state at t=0− .
