your papers on Monday, February 24, before you start your exam.
1. The voltage drop across two series-connected units A and B are 60 and 90 V respectively.
Assuming Va to be the reference phasor, calculate the resultant voltage and the angle it makes
with the x-axis if a) VB lags VA by 90o, b) VB leads VA by 60o.

instantaneous values of voltage a) 0.007 s after the wave passes through zero in a positive
direction, b) 0.01 s after the wave passes through zero in a negative direction.
3. The in-phase currents in the parallel branches of a circuit have the following equations:
A, and
