Series L-R Circuit

  • Now consider an ac circuit consisting of a resistor of resistance R and an inductor of inductance L in series with an ac source generator.
  • Suppose in phasor diagram, current is taken along positive x-direction. The VR is also along positive x-direction and VL along positive y-direction as we know that potential difference across a resistance in ac is in phase with current and it leads in phase by 90º with current across the inductor, and as we know VR = i0R & V0 = i0XL
    i = i0 sin wt
    Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET
    VR(t) = i0 Rsin ωt
    VL(t) = i0 XL sin (ωt + p/2)
    hence we can write
    V(t) = i0R sin ωt + i0 XL sin (ωt + p/2)
    V0 = i0Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET
    where Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET is known as impedence (z) of the circuit.
    now we can write
    Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET
    where tan β= Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET
    hence β = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

Example 1. When 100 volt dc is applied across a coil, a current of 1 amp flows through it; when 100 V ac of 50 Hz is applied to the same coil, only 0.5 amp flows. Calculate the resistance of inductance of the coil.

Sol. In case of a coil, i.e., L - R circuit.

i = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET with Z = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

So when dc is applied, ω = 0, so z = R

and hence i = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET i.e., R = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 200 ?

Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEETi.e., ω2L2 = Z2-R2

i.e., (2πfL)2 = 2002 - 1002 = 3 × 104 (as ω = 2πf)

So, L = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 0.55 H


Example 2. A 12 ohm resistance and an inductance of 0.05/p henry with negligible resistance are connected in series. Across the end of this circuit is connected a 130 volt alternating voltage of frequency 50 cycles/second. Calculate the alternating current in the circuit and potential difference across the resistance and that across the inductance.

Sol. The impedance of the circuit is given by

Z = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

= Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 13 ohm

Current in the circuit i = E/Z = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 10 amp

Potential difference across resistance

VR = iR = 10 × 12 = 120 volt

Inductive reactance of coil XL = ωL = 2πfL

Therefore, XL = 2π × 50 × Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 5 ohm

Potential difference across inductance

VL = i × XL = 10 × 5 = 50 volt

Series C-R Circuit

Now consider an ac circuit consisting of a resistor of resistance R and an capacitor of capacitance C in series with an ac source generator.

Suppose in phasor diagram current is taken along positive x-direction. Then VR is also along positive x-direction but VC is along negative y-direction as potential difference across a capacitor in ac lags in phase by 90º with the current in the circuit. So we can write,

Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

VR = I0 R sin ωt Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

Example 3. An A.C. source of angular frequency w is fed across a resistor R and a capacitor C in series. The current registered is i. If now the frequency of the source is changed to ω/3 (but maintaining the same voltage), the current in the circuit is found to be halved. Calculate the ratio of reactance to resistance at the original frequency.

Sol. At angular frequency w, the current in R-C circuit is given by

irms = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET ...(i)

When frequency is changed to ω/3, the current is halved. Thus

Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET ...(ii)

From equations (i) and (ii), we have

Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

Solving this equation, we get Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

Hence, the ratio of reactance to resistance is Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

Example 4. A 50 W, 100 V lamp is to be connected to an ac mains of 200 V, 50 Hz. What capacitance is essential to be put in series with the lamp?

Sol. As resistance of the lamp R = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 200 ? and the maximum current i = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET ; so when the lamp is put in series with a capacitance and run at 200 V ac, from V =iZ we have,

Z = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 400?

Now as in case of C-R circuit, Z = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET,

i.e., R2 + Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 160000

or, Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 16 × 104 - (200)2 = 12 × 104

So, Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET × 102

or C = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET

i.e., C = Series L-R, C-R & C-R Circuit | Physics Class 12 - NEET = 9.2 μF

Now consider an ac circuit consisting of a resistor of resistance R, a capacitor of capacitance C and an inductor of inductance L are in series with an ac source generator.

Suppose in a phasor diagram current is taken along positive x-direction. Then VR is along positive x-direction, VL along positive y-direction and VC along negative y-direction, as potential difference across an inductor leads the current by 90° in phase while that across a capacitor, lags by 90°.
