An oscillating LC circuit consisting of a1µFcapacitor and aL=3mHcoil has a maximum voltage of 3.0 V. What are (a) the maximum charge on the capacitor, (b) the maximum current through the circuit, and (c) the maximum energy stored in the magnetic field of the coil?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The maximum charge on the capacitor is 3×10-9C.
  2. The maximum current through the circuit is 1.73×10-3A.
  3. The maximum energy stored in the magnetic field of the coil is 4.5×10-9J.

Step by step solution

01

The given data

  1. The given capacitor, C=1μF or1×10-9F.
  2. The inductance of the coil,L=3mH or3×10-3H.
  3. Maximum voltage,Vmax=3V.

Understanding the concept of oscillations of LC circuit

The maximum charge in the capacitor can be calculated by the relation between the charge, capacitor, and the potential difference across the capacitor. Also, the maximum current through the circuit is calculated by the equation for the energy of and. From the maximum current in the circuit, we can calculate the maximum energy stored in the magnetic field of the coil.

Formulae:

The charge of the capacitor,Q=CV (i)

The magnetic energy stored in the inductor,U=Li22 (ii)

The electric energy stored in the capacitor, U=Q22C (iii)

03

a) Calculation of the maximum charge

Using the given data in equation (i), we can get the maximum charge on the capacitor as follows:

Qmax=1×10-93=3×10-9C

Hence, the value of the charge is 3×10-9C.

04

b) Calculation of the maximum current through the circuit

So, we can calculate the maximum current through the circuit by equating both the energy equations (ii) and (iii) as follows:

Li22=Q22Cimax2=Qmax2LCimax=QmaxLC=3×10-93×10-3×1×10-9=1.73×10-3A

Hence, the value of the maximum current is1.73×10-3A.
05

c) Calculation of the maximum magnetic energy stored in the coil

When the current is maximum, the magnetic energy is also maximum, so using equation (ii), we can get the maximum magnetic energy in the coil can be given as follows:

Umax=3.0×10-31.73×10-322=4.5×10-9J

Hence, the value of the magnetic energy is 4.5×10-9J.
