Explanation / Answer

resistance R=2.5 ohms

inductance L=100*10^-6 H

capacitance C=87.5*10^-6 F

a)

Vrms=5.6 v

f=120 Hz

===> w=2pif=2pi*120 = 753.98 rad/sec

Imax=Vmax/sqrt(R^2+(wL-1/wC)^2)

Imax=Vrms*sqrt(2)/sqrt(R^2+(wL-1/wC)^2)

Irms=Imax/sqrt(2) =vrms/(sqrt(R^2+(wL-1/wC)^2))

Irms=5.6/(sqrt(2.5^2+(753.98*100*10^-6-1/(753.98*87.5*10^-6))^2)

Irms=0.36 A

b)

tan(theta)=(WL-1/WC)/R

tan(theta)=(753.98*100*10^-6-1/(753.98*87.5*10^-6))/2.5

theta=80.6 degrees

c)

f=5 kHz =5*10^3 Hz

===> w=2pif=2pi*5*10^3 = 31.41*10^3 rad/sec

Irms=Imax/sqrt(2) =vrms/(sqrt(R^2+(wL-1/wC)^2))

Irms=5.6/(sqrt(2.5^2+(31.41*10^3*100*10^-6-1/(31.41*10^3*87.5*10^-6))^2)

Irms=1.5 A

d)

tan(theta)=(WL-1/WC)/R

tan(theta)=(31.41*10^3*100*10^-6-1/(31.41*10^3*87.5*10^-6))/2.5

theta=48 degrees

e)

resonace frequency f=1/2pi*sqrt(LC)

f=1/(2pi*sqrt(100*10^-6*87.5*10^-6))

f=1701.44 Hz

f)
at resonance,

Irms=Vrms/R

Irms=5.6/2.5

Irms=2.24 A

g)

tan(theta)=(WL-1/WC)/R

tan(theta)=0

===> theta=0 degrees
