An ac generator produces emf ε=εmsin(Ӭdt-π4) , where εm=30.0Vand Ӭd=350rad/sec. The current in the circuit attached to the generator is i(t)=Isin(Ӭdt-π4), where I=620mA . (a) At what time aftert=0does the generator emf first reach a maximum? (b) At what time aftert=0does the current first reach a maximum? (c) The circuit contains a single element other than the generator. Is it a capacitor, an inductor, or a resistor? Justify your answer. (d) What is the value of the capacitance, inductance, or resistance, as the case may be?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Time at which emf reaches maximum is 6.73×10-3sec.

(b) Time at which current reaches maximum is 2.24×10-3sec.

(c) Element is the capacitor.

(d) Value of capacitance is5.9×10-5F

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities

The emf εm=30.0V,

The angular frequency Ó¬d=350rad/sec,

The current I=650mA,

02

Understanding the concepts of capacitance

To find time at which emf and current is maximum, use. To find capacitance, use the basic formula for capacitance.

Formula:

For maximum emfsinÓ¬dt-Ï€4=1.

For maximum currentsinÓ¬dt+Ï€4=1.

The capacitive reactance Xc=1Ó¬C,

Here, Ó¬is the angular frequency and Cis the capacitance.

The current I=XcÓ¬,

03

(a) Calculations of the time at which emf reaches its maximum value

Maximum emf is produced when sinÓ¬dt-Ï€4=1

It means, the angle is,

Ó¬dt-Ï€4=sin-11=Ï€2

t=3π4×Ӭd=3×3.144×350=6.73×10-3sec

Hence, the time at which emf reaches maximum is6.73×10-3sec

04

(b) Calculations of thetimeat which current reaches its maximum value

Time at which current reaches its maximum value

Maximum emf is produced when

sinÓ¬dt-Ï€4=1Ó¬dt-Ï€4=sin-11Ó¬dt-Ï€4=Ï€2

t=π4×Ӭd=3.144×350=2.24×10-3sec

Hence, time at which current reaches maximum is2.24×10-3sec .

05

(c) Explanation the element is capacitor, inductor, or resistor

By finding the phase difference between the current and emf, we confirm that the current leads the emf by π2so element must be a capacitor.

06

(d) Calculations of the capacitance

Xc=1Ó¬C

I=XcÓ¬

Therefore, the capacitance is,

C=IεmӬ=6.2×10-330×350=5.9×10-5F

Hence, the value of capacitance is 5.9×10-5F
