Solution Summary
The following posting helps with electricity and magnetism problem. It helps calculate energy, current and voltage. Step by step calculations are given.
Solution Preview
1. Given,
C = 2 F
v = v(pi) = cos(2*pi) = 1 Volt
So, energy in the capacitor = C * v^2 / 2 = 2 * 1^2 / 2 = 1 J
2. Given,
L = 10 H
i = i(pi) = cos(2*pi) = 1 Amps
So, energy in the inductor = L * i^2 / 2 = 10 * 1^2 / 2 = 5 J
3. Given,
L = 1 H
