Solution

Inductance, L = 0.12 H

Capacitance, C = 480 nF = 480 × 10−9 F

Resistance, R = 23 Ω

Supply voltage, V = 230 V

Peak voltage is given as:

V0 = `sqrt2 xx 230` = 325.22 V

(a) Current flowing in the circuit is given by the relation, 

I0 = `"V"_0/(sqrt("R"^2 + (ω"L" - 1/(ω"C"))^2`

Where,

I0 = maximum at resonance

At resonance, we have

`ω_"R""L" - 1/(ω_"R""C")` = 0

Where,

ωR = Resonance angular frequency

∴ ωR = `1/sqrt("LC")`

= `1/sqrt(0.12 xx 480 xx 10^-9)`

= 4166.67 rad/s

∴ Resonant frequency, vR = `ω_"R"/(2π) = 4166.67/(2 xx 3.14)` = 663.48 Hz

And, maximum current `("I"_0)_"Max" = "V"_0/"R" = 325.22/23` = 14.14 A

(b) Maximum average power absorbed by the circuit is given as:

`("P"_"av")_"Max" = 1/2 ("I"_0)_"Max"^2 "R"`

= `1/2 xx (14.14)^2 xx 23`

= 2299.3 W

Hence, resonant frequency (vR) is 663.48 Hz.

(c) The power transferred to the circuit is half the power at resonant frequency.

Frequencies at which power transferred is half, = ωR ± Δω

= `2π ("v"_"R" ± Δ"v")`

Where,

Δω = `"R"/(2"L")`

= `23/(2 xx 0.12)`

= 95.83 rad/s

Hence, change in frequency, Δv = `1/(2π)Δω = 95.83/(2π)` = 15.26 Hz

∴ vR + Δv = 663.48 + 15.26 = 678.74 Hz

And, vR − Δv = 663.48 − 15.26 = 648.22 Hz

Hence, at 648.22 Hz and 678.74 Hz frequencies, the power transferred is half.

At these frequencies, current amplitude can be given as:

I' = `1/sqrt2 xx ("I"_0)_"Max"`

= `14.14/sqrt2`

= 10 A

(d) Q-factor of the given circuit can be obtained using the relation, Q = `(ω_"R""L")/"R"`

= `(4166.67 xx 0.12)/23`

= 21.74

Hence, the Q-factor of the given circuit is 21.74.
