LRC math question

[pucho812]

o.k. so I have a LRC all wired in parallel giving me a frequency of about 500 hz...

If needed to lower the inductor value as to have one that is more common, I would increase the cap value in order to keep my 500hz?

Hi,

Yes, but the characteristic impedance would also change and with it the Q.
