PHY 132 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Rlc Circuit, Capacitor, Inductor
Document Summary
Abstract: the experiment looked to investigate phase shifts and resonance across the components in an lrc a. c circuit. Theoretical and experimental values for the components of j with respect to reactance xj and phase angle j are summarized as follows. The reactance for the capacitor, xc, was theoretically found to be 115. 33 11. 5 while the experimental value listed 210 . The xl for the ideal coil was 73. 85 3. 68 . The reactance for the series component as a whole was 46. 05. 10. 88 while the experimental value was 30 . The circuit had an angle of 1. 12 0. 003rad while the experimental value yielded -1. 08rad. the experiment was overall successful due to low percent errors and getting a better grasp of phases and reactance as seen from the values calculated. The purpose of this lab was to learn about the concept of phase and reactance in an ac electrical circuit.
