Question

An LC circuit consists of a C=5OmicroFarad capacitor and L=0.7Henry inductor connected in a simple loop with zero resistance and no battery. The capacitor and inductor store a combined total energy of U=32microJoules. (a) If all the circuits energy is stored in the capacitor at time t = O, when is the soonest time that all the energy will be stored in the inductor? ms (b) How much charge is stored on one side of the capacitor at t = O? Micro Coulombs. Enter a number. current flows through the inductor at the time you found in (a)? mA (d) If the inductor is a cylindrical solenoid of length I=7centimeters and radius r=2.3centimeters, find the number of coils in the solenoid. coils (e) What is the maximum magnetic field inside the inductor? mT (f) If the maximum electric field in the capacitor is E=O.5x1O^3 N/C and the space between the plates if filled with a dielectric of constant 100,000, what is the separation between the plates? mm (g) What is the area of one of the plates? Cm^2

Explanation / Answer

a)

frequecny

f=1/2pi*sqrt(LC) =1/2pi*sqrt(0.7*50*10-6) =26.9 Hz

T=1/f =0.03717 seconds

the time that all the energy will be stored in inductor is

t=T/4 =9.3 ms

b)

Energy stored in capacitor is

U=(1/2)(Q2/C)

=>Q=sqrt[2UC]=sqrt[2*32*10-6*50*10-6]

Q=56.57 uC

c)

Energy stored in inductor is

U=(1/2)LImax2

=>Imax=sqrt[2*U/L]=sqrt[2*32*10-6/0.7]

Imax=9.56 mA

d)

Area

A=pi*r2=pi*0.0232=1.66*10-3 m2

Inductance of a solenoid is

L=uoN2A/l

=>N=sqrt[L*l/uo*A]=sqrt[0.7*0.07/4pi*10-7*1.66*10-3]

N=4844 turns

e)

magnetic field of a solenoid is

B=uo*N*I/L =(4pi*10-7)*4844*0.00956/0.07

B=0.831 mT

f)

U=(1/2)CV2

=>V=sqrt[2U/C]=sqrt[2*32*10-6/50*10-6]

V=1.13 Volts

so

d=V/E =1.13/500=2.26 mm

g)

Capacitance

C=KeoA/d

=>A=C*d/(K*eo)=(50*10-6)(2.26*10-3)/(100,000*8.85*10-12)

A=1278.4 cm2
