It is due 28th June 2017

Question 1.
A voltage, v = 150 sin(314t + 30°) volts, is maintained across a circuit consisting of a 20 Ω
non-reactive resistor in series with a loss-free 100 µF capacitor. Derive an expression for the
r.m.s. value of the current phasor in:
(a) rectangular notation;
(b) polar notation.
Draw the phasor diagram.

Question 2.
The current in a circuit is given by 4.5 + j12 A when the applied voltage is 100 + j150 V.
Determine:
(a) the complex expression for the impedance, stating whether it is inductive or
capacitive;
(b) the active power;
(c) the phase angle between voltage and current.

Question 3.
A network consists of three branches in parallel. Branch A is a 10 Ω resistor, branch B is a
coil of resistance 4 Ω and inductance 0.02 H, and branch C is an 8 Ω resistor in series with a
200 µF capacitor. The combination is connected to a 100 V, 50 Hz supply.

Find the various branch currents and then, by resolving into in-phase and quadrature
components, determine the total current taken from the supply.

A phasor diagram showing the relative positions of the various circuit quantities should
accompany your solution. It need not be drawn to scale.
Question 4.
For the following circuit in figure 4:
a) Find the number of (essential) nodes, (essential) branches and meshes. [1 marks]
b) How many unknown currents are there in this circuit? [1 marks]
c) How many independent KCL equations can be found? Why? [1 marks]
d) How many KVL equations can be found? Why? [1 marks]
e) Which mesh should be avoided when applying KVL in the circuit of Figure 4? Why? [1

f) Deduce all the equations which permit to find all the currents in the circuit. [2 marks]
g) Solve the equations. [1 marks]
h) Put these equations in the matrix form where A is a square matrix, I the currents and a vector
of constants. Solve the equations using Matlab to check your results. [1 marks]
i) Conclusion about the use of Kirchhoff’s laws [1 marks]

Question 7.
A constant voltage at a frequency of 1 MHz is maintained across a circuit consisting of an
inductor in series with a variable capacitor. When the capacitor is set to 300 pF, the current
has its maximum value.

When the capacitance is reduced to 284 pF, the current is 0.707 of its maximum value. Find

(a) the inductance and the resistance of the inductor and


(b) the Q factor of the inductor at 1 MHz. Sketch the phasor diagram for each
condition.
