Step 1

Solution:

 

Given Values,

RMS Voltage (VRMS)=20 VInductance (L)=3 H

Step 2

From the above Given Current v/s driving frequency graph:

 

We have,

 

RMS current (IRMS)=5 AResonant frequency (fr)=500 Hz

 

So,

 

The Values of each given parameters are calculated as follows:

 

a) Resistance (R)

 

We know that,

 

At Resonance Condition:

 

XL=XC which occurs at 500 Hzand Z=R (Frequency at resonance for Z wil be 0)

So,

 

Here,

 

Z=R=VRMSIRMSR=20 V5 A=4 ΩThus,Resistance (R)=4 Ω

 

 

 

Step 3

b) Capacitance (C):

 

We know that,

 

Capacitive Reactance(XC)=1ωC

 

Here,

 

C=1ωXCC=12πfrXC

 

Since we know that at resonance condition:

 

XC=XLXL=ωL    =2πfrL    =2×3.14×500 Hz×3 H    =9420 ΩHence,XC=XL =9420 Ω

 

As per the above relation, we get:

C=12πfrXC  =12×3.14×500 Hz×9420 ΩC=3.38×10-8 F =33.8 nFThus,The capacitence Value is  33.8 nF
