Determining the concept

Here, use the formula for phase angle in terms of voltage across inductance, the voltage across resistance, and resistance. And from the phase angle, decide whether the circuit is inductive or capacitive. Then, use the formula for amplitude voltage.

The electromotive force is given as-

n=VR2+VL-Vc2 (i)

Here, n is EMF amplitude voltage, VRis voltage across resistance, VLis voltage across inductor, VCis voltage across capacitor.

Phase angle is given as-

tanϕ=VL-VcVR (ii)

(a) Determining the Phase angle

The phase angle of the LCR circuit is given as follows:

.tanϕ=VL-VcVR

HereVLis the voltage across the inductor andVCvoltageacross the capacitor.

AndVR=VL2

tanϕ=VL-VL1.5VL2

ϕ=33.7°=0.588rad

Hence,thephase angle is 0.588rad.

04

(b) Determining the circuit is, inductive, capacitive, or in resonance

Since,ϕ>0the circuit should be inductive.

Hence, the circuit is inductive.

05

(c) Determining the amplitude of driving emf

The voltage across the resistance is as follows:

VR=IRVR=0.2A×49.9ΩVR=10V

Now,

VL=2VRVL=2×10VVL=20V

Now,

Vc=VL1.5Vc=20V1.5Vc=13.5V

Now amplitude is,

n=VR2+VL-Vc2n=9.98V2+20V-13.3V2n=12.0V

Hence,the amplitude of driving emf is12V.

Curve a in Fig. 31-21 gives the impedance Z of a driven RC circuit versus the driving angular frequency ωd. The other two curves are similar but for different values of resistance R and capacitance C. Rank the three curves according to the corresponding value of R, greatest first.

A single loop consists of inductors (L1,L2,......), capacitors (C1,C2,......), and resistors (R1,R2,......) connected in series as shown, for example, in Figure-a. Show that regardless of the sequence of these circuit elements in the loop, the behavior of this circuit is identical to that of the simple LCcircuit shown in Figure-b. (Hint:Consider the loop rule and see problem) Problem:- Inductors in series.Two inductors L1 and L2 are connected in series and are separated by a large distance so that the magnetic field of one cannot affect the other.(a)Show that regardless of the sequence of these circuit elements in the loop, the behavior of this circuit is identical to that of the simple LC circuit shown in above figure (b).

A generator with an adjustable frequency of oscillation is wired in series to an inductor of L = 2.50 mHand a capacitor ofC=3.00μF. At what frequency does the generator produce the largest possible current amplitude in the circuit?

Figure 31-19 shows three oscillating LC circuits with identical inductors and capacitors. At a particular time, the charges on the capacitor plates (and thus the electric fields between the plates) are all at their maximum values. Rank the circuits according to the time taken to fully discharge the capacitors during the oscillations greatest first.
