15.4 Exercise 11

Avg difficulty 2.5

For an RLC series circuit, the voltage amplitude and frequency of the source are 100 V and 500 Hz, respectively; R=500ΩR = 500 \Omega; and L=0.20HL = 0.20 \text{H}. Find the average power dissipated in the resistor for the following values for the capacitance: (a) C=2.0μFC = 2.0 \mu \text{F} and (b) C=0.20μF.C = 0.20 \mu \text{F} .
