c ) The average power loss is 7.29watt

Step by step solution

01

Part(a) Step 1: Given information 

We are given that the resistor of 25Ω, a0.10H inductor , a 100mF capacitor are there in RLCcircuit . We are given thatIrms current of 2.5A and frequency 60Hz of source.

We need to find Erms.

02

Part(a) Step 2: Simplify 

Firstly we will find inductive reactance , XL=2Ï€´Ú³¢=2π×60×0.10=37.6Ω

similarly we will find capacitive reactance ,XC=12Ï€´Ú°ä=12π×60×100×10-3=0.26Ω

Impedance , Z=R2+XL-XC2=2019.27=44.9Ω

We also know that , Irms=ErmsZ⇒Erms=2.5×44.9=112.3V

03

Part(b) Step 1: Given information 

We are given that the resistor of 25Ω, a 0.10H inductor , a 100mF capacitor are there in RLCcircuit . We are given thatIrmscurrent of 2.5Aand frequency 60Hz of source.

We need to find phase angle .

04

Part(b) Step 2: Simplify 

Firstly we will find inductive reactance , XL=2Ï€´Ú³¢=2π×60×0.10=37.6Ω

Similarly we will find capacitive reactance , XC=12Ï€´Ú°ä=12π×60×100×10-3=0.26Ω

Phase angle is given by , ϕ=tan-1XL-XCR=tan-137.34=1.54°

05

Part(c) Step 1: Given information 

We are given that the resistor of25 , a0.10H inductor , a 100mF capacitor are there in RLCcircuit . We are given thatIrms current of 2.5A and frequency60Hz of source.

We need to find average power loss.

06

Part(c) Step 2: Simplify

We will calculate power factor here which is given by ,

cosϕ=cos1.54=0.026

then average power lose is given by ,

average power loss =IrmsErmscosϕ=2.5×112.3×0.026=7.29watt

A resistor dissipates 2.0Wwhen the rms voltage of the emf is10.0V. At what rmsvoltage will the resistor dissipate 10.0W?

Commercial electricity is generated and transmitted as three-phase electricity. Instead of a single emf, three separate wires carry currents for the emfs E1=E0cosvt,E2=E0cos1vt+120°,andE3=E0cos1vt-120°over three parallel wires, each of which supplies one-third of the power. This is why the long-distance transmission lines you see in the countryside have three wires. Suppose the transmission lines into a city supply a total of 450MWof electric power, a realistic value.

a. What would be the current in each wire if the transmission voltage were E0=120Vrms?

b. In fact, transformers are used to step the transmission-line voltage up to 500kVrms. What is the current in each wire?

c. Big transformers are expensive. Why does the electric company use step-up transformers?

The telecommunication circuit shown in FIGURECP32.71has a parallel inductor and capacitor in series with a resistor.
