There is a question that has been puzzling me
about filter circuits that i was hoping someone
could explain to me. In physics they talked about the
"Q" of a mechanical circuit, which was a measure of its
ability to reject off resonant frequency signals. I see
how an LC circuit forms a filter, but i don't see how to
change the Q of the circuit. Anybody have an explanation
for me?
