A low-pass RC filter has a crossover frequency fc=200 Hz.What is fc if:

a. The resistance R is doubled?

b. The capacitance C is doubled?

c. The peak emf E0 is doubled?

Short Answer

Expert verified

part(a) fc= 100 Hz

part(b) fc= 100 Hz

part(c) fc= 200 Hz

Step by step solution

01

part(a) step 1 : given information

we have given that

A low-pass RC filter has a crossover frequency fc =200 Hz

we have to find fc if resistance R is doubled

02

part(a) step 2 : simplify

as we know in low- pass R C filter,

fc=12πRC

according to given question

fc=12πRC=200Hz

if resistance R is doubled

fc'=12π2RC=fc2=2002=100Hz

03

part(b) step 1 : given information

we have given that

A low-pass RC filter has a crossover frequency fc=200 Hz

we have to find fcif capacitance C is doubled

04

part(b) step 2 : simplify

as we know in low- pass R C filter,

fc=12πRC

according to given question

fc=12πRC=200Hz

if capacitance C is doubled

fc'=12πR2C=fc2=2002=100Hz

05

part(c) step 1 : given information

we have given that

A low-pass RC filter has a crossover frequency fc=200 Hz

we have to find fc if peak voltage E0 is doubled

06

part(c) step 2 : simplify

as we know in low- pass R C filter,

fc=12πRC

according to given question

fc=12πRC=200Hz

if peak emf E0 is doubled there will be no change therefore,

fc=200Hz

II An electric circuit, whether it's a simple lightbulb or a complex amplifier, has two input terminals that are connected to the two output terminals of the voltage source. The impedance between the two input terminals (often a function of frequency) is the circuit's input impedance. Most circuits are designed to have a large input impedance. To see why, suppose you need to amplify the output of a high-pass filter that is constructed with a 1.2kΩ resistor and a 15μF capacitor. The amplifier you've chosen has a purely resistive input impedance. For a 60Hz signal, what is the ratio VRload/VRno loadof the filter's peak voltage output with (load) and without (no load) the amplifier connected if the amplifier's input impedance is (a) 1.5kΩand (b) 150kΩ ?
