As As a function of of time, time, the the charge on on the the capacitor 1. 1. oscillates sinusoidally. 2. 2. oscillates sinusoidally with with exponentially decreasing amplitude. 3. 3. does does not not vary vary in in time time as as there there is is no no driving emf. emf. 4. 4. not not covered in in the the reading assignment
LECTURE 26 Topics Phasors LC & RLC circuits (no source)
Phasors New Concept: Phasors --rotating vectors in in x-y plane --constant angular velocity ω A(t) A0 sin( ωt δ ) A 0 ωt δ A0 cos( ωt δ ) useful for illustrating phase difference between oscillating quantities (currents, voltages in AC circuits)
Concept Test: The The phasor diagrams represent three three oscillating emfs emfs having different amplitudes and and frequencies at at t=0. t=0. At At finite t t each each phasor rotates counterclockwise. At At the the instant t t shown, the the magnitude E(t) E(t) associated with with each each phasor given in in decreasing order is is E(t) a.) b.) c.) 1. a.), b.) and c.) 2. a.), c.) and b.) 3. b.), c.) and a.) 4. c.), a.), and b.) 5. none of the above 6. need more information
Concept Test: Consider the the pairs pairs of ofphasors below, each each shown at at t t = 0. 0. All All are are characterized by by a common frequency of of oscillation ω. ω. If If we we add add the the oscillations, the the maximum amplitude is is achieved for for pair pair
Concept Test: Consider the the oscillating emf emfshown below. Which of of the thephasor diagrams correspond(s) to to this this oscillation:
