For a \(LCR\) series circuit with an AC source of angular frequency \(\omega\):
1. circuit will be capacitive if \(\omega>\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \)
2. circuit will be inductive if \(\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \)
3. power factor of circuit will be unity if capacitive reactance equals inductive reactance
4. current will be leading voltage if \(\omega>\frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}} \)
