 Series RLC circuit

In a series RLC circuit, the same electric current $I=q^{\prime }$ flows through a resistor, inductor and capacitor. Summing their electric potential difference drops gives $L{q}^{\prime \prime }+R{q}^{\prime }+q/C=V$, and differentiating givesThe homogeneous damped harmonic oscillator has angular frequency ${\omega }_0=1/\sqrt{LC}$ and decay rate $\gamma =R/(2L)$.
