Two magnetically uncoupled inductive coils have Q factors q1 and q2 at the chosen operating frequency. Their respective resistances are R1 and R2. When connected in series, their effective Q factor at the same operating frequency is
A. $$\frac{1}{{{q_1}}} + \frac{1}{{{q_2}}}$$
B. $$\frac{{{q_1}{R_1} + {q_2}{R_2}}}{{{R_1} + {R_2}}}$$
C. $$\frac{{{q_1}{R_2} + {q_2}{R_1}}}{{{R_1} + {R_2}}}$$
D. $${q_1} + {q_2}$$
