Question
12. What are the correct answers?

Transcribed Image Text:The standard form of inductance
reactance in phasor
XL = jwL = j(2πfL) Q
but j is 1<90°, also XL = 2πfL<90°
The standard form of capacitive
reactance in phasor
Xc = 1/(jwC) = 1 / (j*2πfC) = -j/
(2TTfC)
but -j is 1<-90°, so Xc = 1<-90°/(2TfC)
Ω
Example: 3 inductive reactance are
connected in series, XL1 = j40 , XL2
= j25 Q2, XL3 = j35 Q, the total
reactance is j40 + j25 +j35 Q =
j100 Ω
Example: 3 capacitive reactance are
connected in series, Xc1 = -j50 , Xc2
= -j60 Q2, Xc3 = -j40 , the total
reactance is-j50 Ω -j60 Ω,-j40 Ω = -
j150 Ω
Possibly, impedance Z can have
resistance and reactances. Z = R + jX;
R is the real part and represents the
value of resistance, ±jX represents
the value of reactance (it can be
inductive when positive or
capacitive when negative)
Example, A series circuit is composed
of R = 5 Q2, XL = j20 02, Xc = -j30 Q
Z = 5+j20-j30 = 5-j10 02 (this
means the circuit is capacitive),
In polar form Z = 11.18<-63.43° Q
Notes:
1. When the angle of the impedance
Z (in polar form) is positive, the
circuit is inductive and the power
factor is lagging (the current lags
behind the voltage by a certain
angle).
Example: Vrms = 230<0° V, Z =
30<35°, find I.
Irms = Vrms/Z = 230<0° V/30<35° =
7.67<-35° A
The angle between the voltage and the
current is 35° (absolute), but the
current lags behind the voltage (V is
along positive x-axis, while I is in 4th
quadrant)
2. When the angle of the impedance
Z (in polar form) is negative, the
circuit is capacitive and the power is
leading (the current leads the
voltage by a certain angle).
Example: Vrms = 230<0° V, Z =
25<-55°, find I.
Irms = Vrms / Z = 230<0° V / 25<-55° =
9.2<55° A
The angle between the voltage and the
current is 55° (absolute), but the
cur
the voltage (V is along
positive x-axis, while I is in 1st
quadrant)
Problem: A series RLC circuit is
compose of R = 50 Q2, XL = j40 Q2, Xc =
-j15 2. The supply voltage is Vrms =
240<0° V, find the impedance, current,
and power factor of the circuit.
Opf = cos(45°) = 0.707 lagging
1 = 4.92<26.57° Q
OZ = 55.90<26.57° Q
14.92<-90° Q
ONFTOC
OZ = 55.90<-26.57° Q
Opf = cos(26.57°) = 0.894 leading
pf = cos(0°) = 1, unity (the current and
voltage are in-phase)
0 1 = 4.92<-26.57° Ω
Opf = cos(26.57°) = 0.894 lagging
OZ = 55.90<90° Q
