Solution

Given the problem about a series RLC circuit with the voltage V(t)=10sin⁑(Ο‰t)V(t) = 10 \sin(\omega t) applied, and the following information:

  • Maximum voltage across the capacitor at resonance: VC=500 VV_C = 500 \, V
  • Bandwidth Δω=400 rad/sec\Delta \omega = 400 \, \text{rad/sec}
  • Impedance at resonance Z0=100 ΩZ_0 = 100 \, \Omega

Let's solve the different parts of the problem step by step.

(a) Find the resonant frequency Ο‰0\omega_0

The resonant frequency Ο‰0\omega_0 of a series RLC circuit is given by:

Ο‰0=1LC\omega_0 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}

At resonance, the impedance of the circuit Z0Z_0 is purely resistive and equals the resistance RR (since XL=XCX_L = X_C and cancel each other out). From the given information, we know:

Z0=R=100 ΩZ_0 = R = 100 \, \Omega

From the maximum voltage across the capacitor, we can also relate it to the impedance at resonance. The relationship between the voltage across the capacitor and the total voltage in the circuit is:

VCV=ZCZ0\frac{V_C}{V} = \frac{Z_C}{Z_0}

At resonance, the voltage across the capacitor is VC=500 VV_C = 500 \, V and the supply voltage is V=10 VV = 10 \, V. Hence, we can write:

50010=ZC100\frac{500}{10} = \frac{Z_C}{100}

ZC=5000 ΩZ_C = 5000 \, \Omega

Now, using the resonance condition for the series RLC circuit, where ZC=1Ο‰0CZ_C = \frac{1}{\omega_0 C}, we substitute the known value of ZCZ_C:

5000=1Ο‰0C5000 = \frac{1}{\omega_0 C}

Now, to find the resonant frequency, we need more information, such as Δω\Delta \omega.

(b) Compute the upper and lower limits of the bandwidth

The bandwidth Δω\Delta \omega for a series RLC circuit is related to the quality factor QQ and the resonant frequency Ο‰0\omega_0 by the following equation:

Δω=Ο‰0Q\Delta \omega = \frac{\omega_0}{Q}

Also, the quality factor QQ is given by:

Q=Rω0LQ = \frac{R}{\omega_0 L}

From this, we can express the bandwidth as:

Δω=Ο‰0RΟ‰0L=Ο‰02LR\Delta \omega = \frac{\omega_0}{\frac{R}{\omega_0 L}} = \frac{\omega_0^2 L}{R}

The bandwidth Δω=400 rad/sec\Delta \omega = 400 \, \text{rad/sec}, so we can use this to compute the resonant frequency Ο‰0\omega_0 once we have the value of LL.

(c) Determine the values of L and C for this circuit

We already have a relation between LL, RR, and Ο‰0\omega_0 in part (b), and also between LL and CC in part (a). By solving these equations simultaneously, we can determine the values of LL and CC.

Do you want to continue and break down these equations further, or would you like me to assist with specific calculations in one of the sections?
