Step by step solution

01

Given

  • The emf in the circuit, εm=120V
  • Frequency, f=60.0Hz
  • For open switch, currently leads the emf by Ï•0=-20.0°.
  • In position 1, the current lags the emf by,Ï•1=10.0°
  • In position 2, the current amplitudeI2=2.00A.

Determining the concept

By using the quantities given in the problem and the formula of phase constant, current, and impedance in the circuit, find the values of resistance, inductance, and capacitance.

Formulae are as follows:

  • Phase constant,tanÏ•0=Ó¬dL-1Ó¬dCR=ZLCR.
  • Current in circuit, Iz=εmZLC.
  • The impedance of the circuit, ZLC=Ó¬dL-1Ó¬dCÓ¬=2Ï€´Ú

.

(a) Determining the Value of resistance

When the switch is open, a series RLCcircuit involving just one capacitor near the upper right corner, the phase constant is,

tanϕ0=ӬdL-1ӬdCRtan-20.0°=ӬdL-1ӬdCRtan-20.0°=ӬdL-1ӬdCR······1

Now, when the switch is in position, the equivalent capacitance in the circuit is. In

In this case,

tanϕ1=ӬdL-12ӬdCRtan10°=ӬdL-12ӬdCR······2

Finally, with the switch in position, the circuit is simply an LCcircuit with a current amplitude

I2=εmZLC=εmӬdL-12ӬdC2I2=εm1ӬdC-ӬdL·····3

From equation 1,

R=ӬdL-1ӬdC-tan20°=1ӬdC-ӬdLtan20°

Using the equation (3) in the above equation,

R=εmI2tan20°R=165Ω

Hence, the value of resistance is 165Ω.

04

(b) Determining the Value of inductance

From the above three equations,

L=εmӬdI21 -2tanϕ1tanϕ0L=1202π60.02.01 -2tan10°2tan-20°L=0.313H=313mH

Hence, the value of inductance is 313 mH.

05

(C) Determining the Value of capacitance

From the above three equations,

C=I22Ó¬dεm1 -tanÏ•1tanÏ•0C=2.0022Ï€60.01201-tan10°tan20°°ä=1.49×10-5F=14.9μF

Hence, the value of capacitance is14.9μ¹ó.
