A series LCR-circuit withR=20Ω L = 1.5 H and C=35μF is connected to a variable frequency 200 V ac supply. When the frequency of the supply equals the natural frequency of the supply equals the natural frequency of the circuit. The average power transferred to the circuit in one complete cycle is
A
200 W
B
2000 W
C
100 W
D
4000 W
Answer
2000 W
Explanation
Solution
: If the frequency of the ac source equals the natural frequency of the circuit, the impedance
Z = R = 20 Ω
The average power dissipated per cycle,
Pav(vkSlr)=ZV2rms=RV2rms=20(200)2
=2000W
