  • Question

  • A 2 kΩ resistor is in series with a 0.015 µF capacitor across a 15 kHz ac source. What is the magnitude of the total impedance and the phase angle?


  • Options
  • A. 73.4 Ω and ? = ?19.5°
  • B. 707 Ω and ? = ?19.5°
  • C. 2121 Ω and ? = ?19.5°
  • D. 734 Ω and ? = ?38.9°

  • Correct Answer
  • 2121 Ω and ? = ?19.5° 

    Explanation
    Xc = 1/2?fC = 707 ?

    Z = R - jXc = 2000 - j(707)

    |z| = sqrt(R*R + Xc*Xc) = 2121 ?

    Phase angle = arctangent(Xc/R) = 19.5°
