You have a 200Ω resistor, a 0.400-H inductor, a 5.00mF capacitor, and a variable frequency ac source with an amplitude of 3.00 V. You connect all four elements together to form a series circuit. (a) At what frequency will the current in the circuit be greatest? What will be the current amplitude at this frequency? (b) What will be the current amplitude at an angular frequency of 400 rad/s? At this frequency, will the source voltage lead or lag the current?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The current will be greatest at a frequency of 113Hz, current amplitude at this frequency is 15mA. At 400rad/s frequency, current amplitude will be 7.6mA. The source voltage will lag the current.

Step by step solution

01

Step-1: Formulas used  

Resonance frequency is given byf0=12ττ³¢°ä.The reactance are given byXL=Ó¬³¢ for inductor andXC=1Ó¬°ä for capacitor.

Z=R2+(XL-XC))2,where Z is the impedance

02

Step-2: Calculations for resonance frequency and corresponding current amplitude.

f0=12ττ0.4H5×10-6F=113Hz

For the current, use Ohm’s law to get the current.

I=VR=3V200Ω=15mA

03

Step-3: Calculations for current amplitude at an angular frequency of 400 rad/s.

First calculate the inductive reactance;

XL=2ττ113Hz0.4H=160Ω

And then the capacitive reactance;

XC=12ττ113Hz5×10-6F=500Ω

Since the capacitive reactance is greater than the inductive reactance, therefore the voltage will lag behind the current.

Then calculate the impedance;

Z=2002+160-5002=394.5Ω

The impedance represents the total resistance in the circuit, so we can use its value in Ohm’s law to get the current amplitude.

I=3V394.5Ω=7.6mA

Therefore (a)The current will be greatest at a frequency of 113Hz, current amplitude at this frequency is 15mA and (b).At 400rad/s frequency, current amplitude will be 7.6mA. The source voltage will lag the current.
