A capacitance C and an inductance L are operated at the same angular frequency. (a) At what angular frequency will they have the same reactance? (b) If L=5.00 mH and C =3.50 mF, what is the numerical value of the angular frequency in part (a), and what is the reactance of each element?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Angular frequency,Ó¬=1LC

(b) Numerical value of angular frequency,Ó¬=7759rad/sec

Reactance,XL=XC=37.8Ω

Step by step solution

01

Given Data

A capacitor is a device consisting of two conductors in close proximity that are used to store electrical energy. These conductors are insulated from each other. When a capacitor is attached to an AC supply, the resistance produced by it is called capacitive reactance (XC).

An inductor is a passive two-terminal device that stores energy in a magnetic field when current passes through it. When an inductor is attached to an AC supply, the resistance produced by it is called inductive reactance (XL).

Angular frequency is the measurement of rate of change of waveforms per unit of time. It is generally measure in rad/sec.

Capacitance = C

Inductance = L

02

Determination of Angular frequency

Let the reactance of capacitor be Xc and reactance of inductor be XL, and they can be given by

XC=1Ó¬C,andXL=Ó¬L

Where, Ó¬= Angular frequency.

We are asked to find out the angular frequency at which both reactance are same:

⇒XL=XC⇒ӬL=1ӬC⇒Ӭ2=1LC⇒Ӭ=1LC

Therefore, the angular frequency at which both reactance are same isÓ¬=1LC

03

Determination of Numerical values

Given: L=5.00 mH , and C=3.50μ¹ó

Angular frequency,

Ó¬=1LC=15*10-3H*3.510-6F=7559rad/s

Reactance,

XL=XC=ӬL=(7559rad/s)*(5*10-3)H)=37.8Ω

Therefore, Angular frequency,Ӭ=7759rad/sec , and Reactance,XL=XC=37.8Ω

Question: In the circuit shown in Fig. E26.47 each capacitor initially has a charge of magnitude 3.50 nC on its plates. After the switch S is closed, what will be the current in the circuit at the instant that the capacitors have lost 80.0% of their initial stored energy?

In the circuit, in Fig. E26.47 the capacitors are initially uncharged, the battery has no internal resistance, and the ammeter is idealized. Find the ammeter reading (a) just after the switch S is closed and (b) after S has been closed for a very long time.

Question: The circuit shown in Fig. P26.74, called a Wheatstone Bridge, is used to determine the value of an unknown resistor X by comparison with three resistors M, N, and P whose resistances can be varied. For each setting, the resistance of each resistor is precisely known. With switches S1 and S2 closed, these resistors are varied until the current in the galvanometer G is zero; the bridge is then said to be balanced. (a) Show that under this condition the unknown resistance is given by X = MP/N. (This method permits very high precision in comparing resistors.) (b) If galvanometer G shows zero deflection when M = 850.0 Ω, N = 15.00 Ω, and P = 33.48 Ω, what is the unknown resistance X?

The power rating of a light bulb (such as a 100-W bulb) is the power it dissipates when connected across a 120-V potential difference. What is the resistance of (a) a 100-W bulb and (b) a 60-W bulb? (c) How much current does each bulb draw in normal use?
