Homework Statement
The following three impedances are connected in series across a 100-V, 20-kHz supply:
(1) a 12-Ω resistor, (2) a coil of 100 μH inductance and 5-Ω resistance and (3) a 390-nF
capacitor in series with a 15 Ω resistor. Sketch the circuit diagram, impedance diagram and the phasor diagram; take the supply voltage V as the reference phasor.
(a) Calculate the magnitude of the voltage V2 across the second impedance.
(b) Calculate the magnitude of the voltage V3 across the third impedance.2. The attempt at a solution
Ok, I'm pretty lost here, but this is what I have done so far...
I'm trying to get the current amount flowing in the circuit, so thought I should get a total impedance Z for the circuit.
First resistor = 12 Ohms
For the coil = 5 + 2 * Pi * (20*10^3) * (100*10^-6) = 17.6 Ohms
For the Capacitor = 1 / 2 * Pi * (20*10^3) * (390*10^-9) = 20.4 Ohms
Second resistor = 15 Ohms
Total Z for the circuit = 12+17.6+20.4+15 = 65 Ohms.
That is as far as I have gone so far. Is that the correct way to get total Z?
Next I will find the current by using I = V/Z ?
I guess that would be 1.54 A ?
