The LC circuit enters resonance when the magnitude of the Capacitive and Inductive Reactance cancel each other, when passing a certain frequency.
The coil stores its energy in the form of a magnetic field, while the capacitor stores it in an electric field.
When connected in series or parallel (see image below), energy at a given frequency begins to be transferred between the two, thus causing a resonance.
This resonance occurs when the inductive and capacitive reactances are equal at a given frequency.
These properties cause radio waves, or once excited, to begin to exhibit their properties.
Here is possible to compute the L (inductor) and C (capacitor) for a tuned LC tank in serie or parallel. When the reactance of C and L cancel each other it enters in resonance.
Fill two of the three fields to compute de desired value, the frequency, the capcitance or the indutance.
