    Uploaded by

    John Paul Baquiran
    1) This document describes an experiment to investigate the impedance of a series inductance, resistance, and capacitance circuit and compare it to the impedance of its individual components. 2) The objectives are to study how the circuit impedance varies with frequency and to see how it differs from the inductance, resistance, and capacitance values alone. 3) The circuit will be constructed and measurements will be taken across each component and the total circuit at various frequencies to determine the impedance.

    IMPEDANCE of INDUCTANCE, RESISTANCE and CAPACITANCE CIRCUIT

    OBJECTIVES
    1. To investigate the impedance of a series inductance, resistance and capacitance
    circuit and compare it with the impedance of its constituent components.
    2. To investigate the impedance of series inductance, resistance and capacitance
    circuit to an AC sinusoidal waveform, see how this varies with frequency.

    INSTRUMENTS and MATERIALS

    Audio generator
    2.2-μF capacitor
    1-kΩ resistor
    Connecting wires
    100-mH inductor
    Bread board
    Voltmeter
    AC milliammeter (0-5mA)

    DISCUSSION

    In series AC circuit containing inductance, capacitance, and resistance (Figure 8.1), the
    current is given by;

    E E
    I = =
    √ R2 + ( X L – X C ) 2 Z

    Note that the impedance can be considered as the geometric sum of the resistance, the inductive
    reactance, and the capacitive reactance with due regard to the fact that the inductive reactance
    and the capacitive shift the phase in opposite direction. The impedance can be computed by
    drawing a vector diagram like that in Figure 8.2. The angle by which the current lags behind the
    emf isθ. Clearly tanθ = (XL – XC)/ R, sin θ = (XL – XC)/ Z, cos θ = R/Z. When XC is larger than XL,
    θ is negative and the current leads the applied voltage.
    R XL = 2πfL

    C XC – XL
    θ
    XC = 1/
    2πfC

    PROCEDURES
    1. Connect up the circuit as shown in the wiring diagram of Figure 8.3. Adjust the
    generator output to give 4 Vrms at 500 Hz.
    2. Record the current for this voltage.
    3. Measure and record the voltage across R, L, and C.
    a. Draw to scale showing Vin , VR, VL and VC.
    b. Reconnect the voltmeter across the input of the circuit and adjust the
    generator output to give 4Vrms at 20 Hz and record in Table 8.1 the input
    voltage Vin and the resultant current I.
    c. Repeat the above procedures for frequencies listed in Table 8.2.
    d. Calculate the impedance Z for each frequency and plot a graph of Z against f.
    Then get the frequency at which impedance Z is minimum and measure the
    voltage drop across R, L and C at this frequency and draw the phasor diagram
    of the circuit showing VL, VC, VR, and Vin .

    TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE

    1. What happen to the resistance, the inductive reactance, and the capacitive reactance
    when the frequency applied to a series AC circuit is doubled?
    2. An AC circuit contains a resistor and a variable capacitor. If the frequency is
    constant, will it increase the capacitance or decrease the current. Explain.
    3. A large inductor placed in series with an electric light bulb in an AC circuit results in
    a very dim lamp. A variable capacitor added in series can be adjusted to bring the
    lamp to almost normal brightness. How does this come about?
    4. Explain the statement that “an AC circuit containing both inductance and capacitance
    appears to the source only as either an inductive circuit or a capacitive circuit?”.
    5. At a frequency of 60 Hz, what value of capacitance must be connected in series with
    an impedance of 60 Ω 60 º to form: (a) an inductive impedance of 45 Ω? (b) a
    capacitive impedance of 45 Ω?
