The capacitor model we have used so far has beentreated as an ideal circuit element. A more accuratemodel for a capacitor is shown in Figure P4.67. Theideal capacitor, C, has a large “leakage” resistance, RC,in parallel with it. RC models the leakage currentthrough the capacitor. R1 and R2 represent the leadwire resistances, and L1 and L2 represent the lead wireinductances.a. If C = 1 μF, RC = 100 MΩ, R1 = R2 = 1 μΩ andL1 = L2 = 0.1 μH, find the equivalent impedanceseen at the terminals a and b as a function offrequency ω.b. Find the range of frequencies for which Zab iscapacitive, i.e., Xab > 10|Rab.Hint: Assume that RC is is much greater than 1/wC so thatyou can replace RC by an infinite resistance in part b.
Use the defining law for a capacitor to find the current iC(t) corresponding to the voltage shown in Figure P4.27. Sketch your result.
Consider the circuit of Figure P4.17, in which the switch instantaneously moves back and forth between contacts A and B, spending 2 seconds in each position. Thus, the capacitor repeatedly charges for 2 seconds and then discharges for 2 seconds. Assume that v C ( 0 )=0 and that the switch moves to position A at t=0. Determine v C ( 2 ), v C ( 4 ), v C ( 6 ), and v C ( 8 ).
