a series circuit consists of a 50-Hz source, a 50-ohm resistor, a 0.50-H inductor, and a 60 microfarad capacitor. The rms current in the circuit is measured to be 1.3 Amps. What is the voltage amplitude of the source?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The voltage amplitude of the source is 212.25 V

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the circuit, F = 50-Hz

resistance across the circuit, R = 50-ohm

capacitance, C = 60 microfarad

inductance, L = 0.50-H

rms current in the circuit, [tex]I_{rms}[/tex] =  1.3 A

[tex]I_{rms} = \frac{I_o}{\sqrt{2} } \\\\I_o = I_{rms} *\sqrt{2}[/tex]

where;

[tex]I_o[/tex] is peak current

[tex]I_o = 1.3*\sqrt{2} = 1.8385 \ A[/tex]

Also, the voltage amplitude of the source is given as;

[tex]V_o = I_oZ[/tex]

where;

Z is impedance calculated as;

[tex]Z = \sqrt{(X_l-X_c)^2 + R^2}[/tex]

[tex]X_l[/tex] is inductive reactance, calculated as;

[tex]X_l = \omega L = 2\pi f L = 2\pi * 50* 0.5 = 157.1 \ ohms[/tex]

[tex]X_c[/tex] is capacitive reactance, calculated as;

[tex]X_c = \frac{1}{\omega C} = \frac{1}{2\pi f C} = \frac{1}{2 \pi *50*60*10^{-6}} = 53.0448 \ ohms[/tex]

[tex]Z = \sqrt{(157.1 -53.0448)^2+50^2} = \sqrt{13327.4847} = 115.45\ ohms[/tex]

Finally, the voltage amplitude of the source:

[tex]V_o = I_oZ\\\\V_o = 1.8385*115.45 = 212.25 \ V[/tex]

Therefore, the voltage amplitude of the source is 212.25 V

The amplitude voltage of the main source is 212.2 V.

We must first obtain the inductive and capacitive reactance as follows;

Inductive reactance (XL) = 2πfL = 2π × 50 × 0.50 = 157.1 Ω

Capacitive reactance (XC) = 1/2πfC = 1/ 2π × 50 × 60 × 10^-6 = 53.1 Ω

Now we obtain the impedence from;

Z = √(R^2 + (XL - XC)^2

Z = √(50)^2 + ( 157.1 - 53.1)^2

Z = √2500 + 10816

Z = 115.4 Ω

Now;

Vrms = IrmsZ

V = 1.3 A × 115.4 Ω

Vrms = 150 V

Vo = Vrms/0.707 = 150 V/0.707 = 212.2 V
