Homework Statement
[/B]
Parallel circuit consists of 100ohm resistor with 0.4A current, a 0.47uf capacitor with 0.177A current. Both connected across an AC supply, determine
Homework Equations
[/B]
The supply voltage
The supply frequency
Current drawn from supply
Power factor of the circuit
The Apparent power
The Attempt at a Solution
[/B]
The supply voltage is 40V.
Supply frequency is where I am stuck at the minute. I have VL=VC=XC
So VC=1/(2PiFC)
Substitute F for VC and I get VC=1/(2PiC*VC)
F= 1/(2Pi *0.47x10-6*40V)
Doing that equation I get 8465.69Hz which is crazy?
Thanks in advance Alan
