Definitions:

Resonant Frequency

The frequency at which a system naturally oscillates with maximum amplitude, such as in electrical circuits or mechanical systems.

Low Impedance

A characteristic of a circuit that allows a large amount of current to flow due to its low opposition to the current flow.

Opposition To Current

Resistance or any impedance facing the flow of electric current in a circuit, hindering the movement of charge.

Low-pass

A filter designed to allow signals with a frequency lower than a certain cutoff frequency to pass through while attenuating frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency.
