Homework Statement
A generator with an rms voltage of 130V is connected in series to a resistor 3.65k[tex]\Omega[/tex] and a capacitor 3.00[tex]\mu[/tex]F.
Using the frequency found in part A (47.5Hz), find the average power consumed by this circuit.
[tex]\phi[/tex] = 17degrees
Homework Equations
Latex isn't working for me so I'm sorry for the formatting
Pavg = (Vrms/Z)VrmsCos(17)
Z=((36502+(1/(2*pi*47.5Hz*3.00*10-6Farad))2)(1/2)
Pavg = (Vrms/Z)VrmsCos(17)
Pavg = .1111 W
The answer is 4.23 W
I'm just trying to figure out where I went wrong.
