  • Circuits and Resonance

    When a capacitor and inductor are connected in parallel and a condition of resonance exists, electrons will flow back and forth between the inductor and the capacitor at resonant frequency and will not flow through the circuit.

  • RLC Circuit: Resonance

    Z =impedance = square root of {R + (X L ^2 -XC^2)} XL= reactance of inductor = 2 pi f L XC= reactance of capacitor = 1/ (2 pi f C) (a) What inductance will produce a resonance frequency of 95 mHz?

  • Impedance: Sketch a circuit and phasor diagram; mangnitude of voltage, impedance; power supplied, total current

    Thus the phasor diagrams for resonance will look like: Hence in resonance the frequency is: Which gives: The angular frequency is simply: In resonance the impedance Z is just the resistor, so the current in the circuit is

  • Q-factor and resonant frequency

    The Q-factor of a resonance circuit is defined as the ratio of the voltage across the capacitor (or inductor) to the voltage across the resistor, at resonance.

  • Circuits: AC/DC

    What is the ideal total current into the L and C branches of a parallel circuit at resonance?

  • LCR-Circuits: Amplitude of Charge on the capacitor.

    An AC voltage is applied to series LCR circuit and four parts are solved for the frequencies, resonance and charge on the capacitor.

  • Alternating currents - Phase angle, current, capacitance, and voltage

    For the circuit to be in resonance we require: The since the circuit is resonance, the impedance is simply the resistance: Thus te current in the circuit is: And using Ohm's law for the voltage on the capacitor we obtain: This

  • Finding rms current through Capacitor and Inductor

    If the capacitor and inductor are connected in parallel then resonance occurs when the impedance of the capacitor is equal to the impedance of the inductor. 2*pi*f*L = 1/{2*pi*f*C} (7) as we are dealing with parallel impedances now

  • AC Circuits

    At parallel resonance it is also found that a current of 5mA flows from the supply when the supply voltage is 25V r.m.s. Determine the value of the capacitor and the inductance and the resistance of the coil.

  • AC Load

    is in circuit (using the condition that at resonance BC = BL, like XC = XL in a series circuit).
