Step by step solution

01

Part (a) Step 1 : Given information 

We have been given that

Resistance R=50Ω

Inductance L=3.3mH=3.3×10-3H

Capacitance C=480ηF=480×10-9F

Peak voltage Vο=5V

We have to find impedence , peak current and phase angle at given frequency

02

Part (a) Step 2:Explanation

We know that

Z=(50)2+(XL-XC)2 where f=3000Hz

XL=ωL=2×π×3000×3.3×10-3XL62Ω

localid="1650178194248" XC=12πfC=111Ω

Z=2500+(111-62)2Z=70Ω

Also,

I=VmaxZ=570=0.071A

Finding phase angle,

tanϕ=XL-XCR=111-6250=0.981ϕ=π4

Part (b) Step 1 : Given information 

We are given: Frequencyf=4000Hz

We have to find impedance , peak current and phase angle at given frequency.

Part(b) Step 2 : Explanation

Z=(50)2+(XL-XC)2XL=2πfL=83Ω;Xc=12πfC=83Ω

Where f=4000Hz

Z=2500=50Ω

Now, Phase angle ;localid="1650177774479" I=VmaxZ=550=0.1Atanϕ=XL-XCR=0ϕ=0,π

Part (c) Step 1 : Given information 

We are given: Frequency f=5000Hz

We have to find impedance , peak current and phase angle at given frequency.

Part (c) Step 2 : Explanation 

f=5000HzXL=2×3.14×5000×3.3×10-3=104ΩXC=12πfC=67ΩZ=2500+(104-67)2=62ΩIm=VmaxZ=562=0.08Atanϕ=(104-67)50=0.74ϕ=36.5°

The tuning circuit in an FM radio receiver is a series RLC circuit with a 0.200mHinductor.

a. The receiver is tuned to a station at 104.3mHZ. What is the value of the capacitor in the tuning circuit?

b. FM radio stations are assigned frequencies every 0.2mHZ, but two nearby stations cannot use adjacent frequencies. What is the maximum resistance the tuning circuit can have if the peak current at a frequency of 103.9mHZ, the closest frequency that can be used by a nearby station, is to be no more than 0.10% of the peak current at 104.3mHZ? The radio is still tuned to 104.3MHz, and you can assume the two stations have equal strength.

A 20mHinductor is connected across an AC generator that produces a peak voltage of 10V. What is the peak current through the inductor if the emf frequency is (a) 100Hz? (b) 100kHz?

You have a resistor and a capacitor of unknown values. First, you charge the capacitor and discharge it through the resistor. By monitoring the capacitor voltage on a oscilloscope, you see that the voltage decays to half its initial value in 2.5ms. You then use the resistor and capacitor to make a low-pass filter. What is the crossover frequency fc?
