Parallel RC Circuits
Assignment
- A Parallel RC circuit consists of a 68 Ω resistor and a 0.015 µF capacitor with a 3V, 3.3 kHz supply. Calculate the branch currents, supply current, and the phase angle of the supply current with respect to the supply voltage.
- A parallel circuit has a resistance of 5 Ω and a capacitance of 0.001 µF, all connected in parallel. Determine its resonant frequency and bandwidth.
- A parallel RC circuit consists of a 100 Ω resistor and a 0.001 F capacitor with an AC power source of 50 V and 100 Hz. Calculate the total current flowing through the circuit.
- Construct a parallel RC circuit with a 50 Ω resistor and a 1 µF capacitor using a power source of 10 V and 100 Hz. Tabulate the total current flowing through the circuit with a decrease in frequency.
- Design and construct a parallel RC circuit and observe what happens to the current flow with a change in capacitance.
