Question
When the frequency of ac supply is such that the inductive reactance and capacitive reactance become equal, the impedance of the series LCR circuit is equal to the ohmic resistance in the circuit. Such a series LCR circuit is known as resonant series LCR circuit and the frequency of the ac supply is known as resonant frequency. Resonance phenomenon is exhibited by a circuit only if both Land Care present in the circuit. We cannot have resonance in a RL or RC circuit.
A series LCR circuit with L = 0.12H, C = 480nF, $\text{R} = 23\Omega$ is connected to a 230V variable frequency supply.

Answer

  1. (c) 663.48Hz

Explanation:

Here, L = 0.12H, e = 480nF = 480 × 10-9F

$\text{R} = 23\Omega,$ V = 230V

$\text{V}_0=\sqrt{2}\times230=325.22\text{V}$

$\text{I}_0=\frac{\text{V}_0}{\sqrt{\text{R}^2+\Big(\omega\text{L}-\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}\Big)^2}}$

At resonance, $\omega\text{L}-\frac{1}{\omega\text{C}}=0$

$\omega=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{LC}}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{0.12\times480\times10^9}}=4166.67\ \text{rad}\ \text{s}^{-1}$

$\upsilon_\text{R}=\frac{4166.67}{2\times3.14}=663.48\text{H}_\text{z}$

  1. (a) 14.14A

Explanation:

Current, $\text{I}_0=\frac{\text{V}_0}{\text{R}}=\frac{325.22}{23}=14.14\text{A}$

  1. (b) 2299.3W

Explanation:

Maximum power, $\text{P}_\text{max}=\frac{1}{2}(\text{I}_0)^2\text{R}$

$=\frac{1}{2}\times(14.14)^2\times23=2299.3\text{W}$

  1. (d) 21.74

Explanation:

Quality factor, $\text{Q}=\frac{\text{X}_\text{R}}{\text{R}}=\frac{\omega_\text{r}\text{L}}{\text{R}}$

$=\frac{4166.67\times0.12}{23}=21.74$

  1. (b) Current
