You are an electrician working in an industrial plant. You discover that the problem with a certain machine is a defective capacitor. The capacitor is connected to a 240-volt AC circuit. The information on the capacitor reveals that it has a capacitance value of 10 mF and a voltage rating of 240 VAC. The only 10-mF AC capacitor in the storeroom is marked with a voltage rating of 350 WVDC. Can this capacitor be used to replace the defective capacitor? Explain your answer.

Basic Electrical Engineering: Inductance and Capacitance You find that a 25-µF capacitor connected to a 480 V AC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480 V AC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 µF and 370 V AC. Can these capacitors be connected in such a manner that they can replace the defective capacitor? If yes, explain how they are connected and why the capacitors will not be damaged by the lower voltage rating. If no, explain why they cannot be used without damage to the capacitor.

Charging a Capacitor: An RC circuit includes a basic switch. In position "a", the battery, resistor and capacitor are connected in series, and the capacitor charges. In position "b", the battery is replaced with a short, and the capacitor will discharge. Two voltmeters and an ammeter have been added to the circuit. F)What is the maximum value of the current after the switch is closed? G) Enter an expression for the current as a function of time. Your answer must explicitly reference the maximum current, Imax, that was determined in the previous step. H) Enter an expression for the voltage measured across the resistor, VR, as a function of time. I) Enter an expression for the voltage measured across the capacitor, VC, as a function of time. J) Add an expression for the sum of the voltages across the resistor and the capacitor as a function of time, VR + VC.
The circuit shown is at steady state before the switch closes. The inductor currents are both zero before the switch closes (i1(0) = i2(0) = 0). The voltage across the 2H-inductor is 4e-5t V for t > 0, otherwise 0V for t < 0. (a) Determine the inductor currents i1(t) and i2(t) for t ≥ 0. (b) Determine the energy stored by each inductor 200ms after the switch closes. (c) In the equivalent inductor (for the parallel inductors) determine the (i) current and the (ii) energy stored for 200 ms after the switch closes.

What is a Linear Circuit? Simply we can say that the linear circuit is an electric circuit (Links to an external site.) and the parameters of this circuit are resistance, capacitance, inductance and etc are constant. Or we can say the parameters of the circuits are not changed with respect to the voltage and current is called the linear circuit. What is a Non-Linear Circuit? The non-linear circuit is also an electric circuit and the parameters of this circuit differ with respect to the current and the voltage. Or in the electric circuit, the parameters like waveforms, resistance, inductance and etc are not constant is called as Non- linear circuit. Question: Is it possible to apply superposition theorem to nonlinear circuit? If yes, why? and if no, why?
The circuit shown in the attached image contains a voltage source with emf ε = 2.99 V, a resistor with resistance R = 135 kΩ, and a capacitor with capacitance C = 612 nF. When switch S is set to position a, the three circuit elements are in series. When the switch is in position b, the battery is excluded from the circuit. The switch is initially moved to position a, where it remains for a sufficiently long time that the capacitor is fully charged. The switch is now moved to position b. What is the magnitude of the instantaneous current, in amperes, through the resistor the instant the switch makes contact with terminal b? With time meausred the instant that switch S is closed in position b, calculate the time, in seconds, when the charge on the capacitor is one-half of its maximum value. Calculate the current through the resistor, in amperes, at time t = 155.5 ms after the switch is closed in position b.
An inductor of 5H, a resistor of 20ohms, and a capacitor of 20mF are connected in series with a source of E=10cos2t V. At t=0, the charge on the capacitor and current in the circuit is zero. Find the charge and current at any time t.

Suppose that at t=0, we connect an uncharged 10{μF capacitor to a charging circuitconsisting of a 2500-V voltage source in series with a 2{MΩ resistance. At t=40s, the capacitoris disconnected from the charging circuit and connected in parallel with a 5{MΩ resistor.Determine the voltage across the capacitor at t=40 s and at t=100 s. (Hint: You may find itconvenient to redefine the time variable to be t′=t−40 for the discharge interval so that thedischarge starts at t′=0.)
