The phase angle of an LRC series circuit with a capacitive reactance of 200 Ω, a resistor of 100 Ω and a certain inductor at 1000 Hz is 40.0°. What is the value of the inductance in this circuit?
Phase angle,
= tan-1[(XL - XC) /
R]
Where XL and XC are the inductive and
capacitive reactances, R is the reisistance.
tan
= (XL - XC) / R
XL - XC = R * tan
XL = XC + R * tan
Substituting values,
XL = 200 + 100 * tan(40)
= 283.91 Ohm
XL =
* L
Where
= 2
* f, f being the frequency and L is the inductance.
L = XL /
= 283.92 / [(2
* 1000)
= 4.52 * 10-2 H
