- In a pure capacitive circuit, does the current lead or lag the voltage?arrow_forwardThree capacitors having capacitance values of 20F,40F, and 50F are connected in parallel to a 60 - Hz power line. An ammeter indicates a circuit current of 8.6 amperes. How much current is flowing through the 40F capacitor?arrow_forwardYou find that a 25-F capacitor connected to 480 VAC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480-VAC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 F and 370 VAC. Can these two 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 damaging the capacitor.arrow_forward
- A 47-ohms load resistor is connected in series with a 10-uF capacitor. At what frequency will the capacitor reach the same value as the load resistor?arrow_forwardThe attached image shows a circuit with an AC voltage source, a resistor, inductor, and capacitor connected in series. The circuit has the following characteristics: Resistor resistance: 10 ohm Capacitor capacitance: 0.05 F Inductor inductance: 13 H Current Amplitude: 4 A Voltage amplitude across the source: 60 V Frequency at the source: 0.3 Hz Voltage amplitude across the resistor: 35 V Voltage amplitude across the capacitor: 37 V Voltage amplitude across the inductor: 80 V (a) Calculate the RMS voltages from the amplitudes above. From the RMS voltages across the capacitor, inductor and resistor, calculate the RMS voltage of the AC source.
