Question
A resistor, capacitor, and coil are connected in series with an
alternating current generator. The effective voltage generated
by the generator is 259V with a frequency of 75Hz. The
effective value of the current flowing through the circuit is 0.32
A, and the power consumption of the circuit is 44w. The
effective voltage across the coil is 250V, which is smaller than
the voltage across the capacitor. Calculate the voltage across
the capacitor and the capacitance of the capacitor. a) V = ? b)
C = ?
