An ac voltmeter, which displays the rms voltage between the two points touched by its leads, is used to measure voltages in the circuit shown in Figure 24-36. In this circuit, the ac generator has an rms voltage of 9 00 V and a frequency of 25 0 kHz. The inductance in the circuit is 0 250 mH, the capacitance is 0 150 ụF, and the resistance is 2 50 Ω What is the reading on a voltmeter when it is connected to points (a) A and B, (b) B and c, (c) A and c, and (d) A and D?

- The average ac current delivered to a circuit is zero. Despite this, power is dissipated in the circuit. Explain.arrow_forwardAn AC generator with an rms emf of 15.0 V is connected in series with a 0.54-H inductor. The frequency of the source emf is 70.0 Hz. Draw a phasor diagram for this circuit, including the current, the potential difference across the inductor, and the source emf. Draw your diagram with the current phasor pointing toward the right along the horizontal axis.arrow_forwardIn a purely inductive AC circuit as shown in Figure P21.15, Vmax = 100. V.
