Question 221: AC fundamentals

Question

In the above circuit, C = $${{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}$$$$\mu $$F, R2 = 20 $$\Omega $$, L = $${{\sqrt 3 } \over {10}}$$ H and R1 = 10 $$\Omega $$. Current in L-R1 path is I1 and in C-R2 path it is I2 . The voltage of A.C. source is given by, V = 200 $${\sqrt 2 }$$ sin (100 t) volts . The phase difference between I1 and I2 is :

Accepted Answer

Phase difference between I
2
and V, i.e. C $$-$$ R
2
circuit is given by
$$	an \phi  = {{{X_C}} \over {{R_2}}} \Rightarrow 	an \phi  = {1 \over {C\omega {R_2}}}$$
Substituting the given values, we get
$$	an \phi  = {1 \over {{{\sqrt 3 } \over 2} 	imes {{10}^{ - 6}} 	imes 100 	imes 20}} = {{{{10}^3}} \over {\sqrt 3 }}$$
$$	herefore$$ $$\phi$$
1
is nearly 90$$^\circ$$.
Phase difference between I
1
and V, i.e. in L $$-$$ R
1
circuit is given by
$$	an {\phi _2} =  - {{{X_L}} \over {{R_1}}} =  - {{L\omega } \over R}$$
Substituting the given values, we get
$$	an {\phi _2} =  - {{{{\sqrt 3 } \over {10}} 	imes 100} \over {10}} =  - \sqrt 3 $$
As, $$	an {\phi _2} =  - \sqrt 3 $$
$$	herefore$$ $${\phi _2} = 120^\circ $$
Now, phase difference between I
1
and I
2
is
$$\Delta \phi  = {\phi _2} - {\phi _1} = 120^\circ  - 90^\circ  = 30^\circ $$

AC fundamentals

In the above circuit, C = ${{\sqrt 3 } \over 2}\mu F, R2 = 20 \Omega , L = {{\sqrt 3 } \over {10}} H and R1 = 10 \Omega . Current in L-R1 path is I1 and in C-R2 path it is I2 . The voltage of A.C. source is given by, V = 200 {\sqrt 2 }$ sin (100 t) volts . The phase difference between I1 and I2 is :
