(October 18, 2024)

1. Consider the periodic signal shown on the i(t)


right, which represents the current pass- 10
ing through a 10 Ω resistor.
(a) Find the RMS value of i(t).
−2 2 4 6 8 t
(b) Find the average power absorbed by −10
the resistor.
(c) Find the value of the energy dissipated in the resistor over one cycle.
2. (a) A given circuit consists of a series combination of a sinusoidal voltage source
3 cos(100t − 3◦ ) V, a 500 Ω resistor, a 30 mH inductor, and an unknown impedance.
If it is observed that voltage source is delivering maximum power to the unknown
impedance, what is its value?
(b) If in the previous part, the 30 mH inductor is replaced by a 10 µF capacitor, what
is the value of the inductive component of the unknown impedance Z if it is known
that Z is absorbing maximum power?
3. Consider the network shown on the right.
When X is a 2.5 µF capacitor, the voltage VAB

equals E1 , where E1 = 100 V. When X is a 2 H
with a
inductor, VAB equals E2 = 40 V, and leads E1 X source at
by 90◦ . Suppose now X is replaced by a short- B 400 rad/s
circuit. Find the current ISC flowing through
AB under these conditions, and its phase an-
gle with respect to E1 .

5. A sub-station operating at 50 Hz provides power to a large data center through a 20


km long high voltage line that can be modeled by a resistance of 5 and an inductive

reactance of 20 . The voltage magnitude at the receiving end has to be maintained at
63.5 kV rms. If the consumer draws 20 MW of power at 0.707 lag power factor,
find (i) line current (ii) active and reactive power absorbed by the line impedance (iii)
the voltage and power factor at the sub-station end (iv) the active and reactive power
at the sub-station end .

If a capacitor is connected directly across the load at customer side such that the receiv-
ing end current is at unity power factor with respect to receiving end voltage, recalculate
the quantities (i)-(iv) for this case and the value of the capacitor.

Find the area of this capacitor, if we are planning to build a simple parallel plate ca-
pacitor with air as dielectric that can support 63.5 kV rms. Please note that breakdown
field of air at atmospheric pressure is 30 kV/cm.
