Chapter 31 Problem 44

Question

An ac generator with emf amplitude #m ! 220 V and operating at frequency 400 Hz causes oscillations in a series RLC circuit having R 220 ", L ! 150 mH, and C ! 24.0 mF. Find (a) the capacitive reactance XC, (b) the impedance Z, and (c) the current amplitude I. A second capacitor of the same capacitance is then connected in series with the other components. Determine whether the values of (d) XC, (e) Z, and (f) I increase, decrease, or remain the same.

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 31 problem number 44 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: An ac generator with emf amplitude #m ! 220 V and operating at frequency 400 Hz causes oscillations in a series RLC circuit having R 220 ", L ! 150 mH, and C ! 24.0 mF. Find (a) the capacitive reactance XC, (b) the impedance Z, and (c) the current amplitude I. A second capacitor of the same capacitance is then connected in series with the other components. Determine whether the values of (d) XC, (e) Z, and (f) I increase, decrease, or remain the same.
From the textbook chapter you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
