3 Oscillations he circuit shown in the figure consists of a capacitor and an inductor. We give the capacitor an initial charge Q and then observe what happens. he capacitor will discharge through the inductor, resulting in a tiedependent current i. We will show that the charge q on the capacitor plates as well as the current i in the inductor oscillate with constant aplitude at an angular frequency. he total energy U in the circuit is the su of the energy stored in the electric field q i of the capacitor and the agnetic field of the inductor: U UE UB. du he total energy of the circuit does not change with tie. hus 0. dt du q dq di dq di d q dq i 0. i q 0 dt dt dt dt dt dt dt 3

" sin t In hapter 30 we encountered a different type of source (see figure) whose ef is: NABsint sin t, where NAB, A is the area of the generator windings, N is the nuber of the windings, is the angular frequency of the rotation of the windings, and B is the agnetic field. his type of generator is known as " alternating current" or " ac" because the ef as well as the current change direction with a frequency f. In the U.. f 60 Hz. Alost all coercial electrical power used today is ac even though the analysis of ac circuits is ore coplicated than that of dc circuits. he reasons why ac power was adapted will be discussed at the end of this chapter. 9

10 hree iple ircuits Our objective is to analyze the circuit shown in the figure ( circuit). he discussion will be greatly siplified if we exaine what happens if we connect each of the three eleents (,, and ) separately to an ac generator. A onvention Fro now on we will use the standard notation for ac circuit analysis. owercase letters will be used to indicate the instantaneous values of ac quantities. Uppercase letters will be used to indicate the constant aplitudes of ac quantities. Exaple: he capacitor charge in an circuit was written as q Qcos t. he sybol q is used for the instantaneous value of the charge. he sybol Q is used for the constant aplitude of q. 0

Fro K we have: i 0 i sin t. he current aplitude is I. he voltage v across is equal to sin t. he voltage aplitude is equal to. he relation between the voltage and current aplitudes is V I. In fig. b we plot the resistor current i and the resistor voltage v as functions of ti e t. Both quantities reach their axiu values at the sae tie. We say that voltage and current are in phase.

12 A convenient ethod for the representation of ac quantities is that of phasors. he resistor voltage v and the resistor current i are represented by rotating vectors known as phasors using the following conventions:. hasors rotate in the counterclockwise direction with angular speed.. he length of each phasor is proportional to the ac quantity aplitude. 3. he projection of the phasor on the vertical axis gives the instantaneous value of the ac quantity. 4. he rotation angle for each phasor is equal to the phase of the ac quantity ( t in this exaple).

27 he ransforer he transforer is a device that can change the voltage aplitude of any ac signal. It consists of two coils with a different nuber of turns wound around a coon iron core. he coil on which we apply the voltage to be changed is called the " priary" and it has N turns. he transforer output appears on the second coil, which is known as the "secondary" and has N turns. he role of the iron core is to ensure that the agnetic field lines fro one coil also pass through the second. We assue that if voltage equal to V is applied across the priary then a voltage V appears on the secondary coil. We also assue that the agnetic field through both coils is equal to B and that the iron core has cross-sectional area A. he agnetic flux d db through the priary NBAV NA ( eq. ). dt dt d db he flux through the secondary NBA V NA ( eq. 7 ). dt dt
