Resonance, Bandwidth & Q Factor

An inductor of 0.5 mH0.5\text{ mH}, a capacitor of 20 μF20\ \mu\text{F} and resistance of 20 Ω20\ \Omega are connected in series with a 220 V220\text{ V} ac source. If the current is in phase with the emf, the amplitude of current of the circuit is x\sqrt{x} A. The value of xx is ___________

Numerical answer type. Work it out, then open the answer.

Show answer and solution

Answer: 242

  1. In phase means resonance, so Z=R=20 ΩZ = R = 20\ \Omega.
  2. Peak emf E0=2202 VE_0 = 220\sqrt{2}\text{ V}.
  3. I0=220220=112=242 AI_0 = \dfrac{220\sqrt{2}}{20} = 11\sqrt{2} = \sqrt{242}\text{ A}
  4. So x=242x = 242.
