Q1 A voltage of 60 cos 4πt V appears across the terminals of
a 3-mF capacitor. Calculate the current through the capacitor and
the energy stored in it from t = 0 to t = 0.125 s.
dv i=C = 3x10 −3 x 60(4π)(− sin 4π t) dt
= –0.72 π sin (4πt) A
P = vi = 60(-0.72)π cos 4π t sin (4π t) = -21.6π sin (8π t) W
1 t W= ∫o pdt = − ∫ 8 21.6π sin(8πt ) dt o
21.6π = cos 8π 1/ 8 = –5.4J 8π o
Q2 Find the equivalent capacitance between terminals a and b in the
circuit of Fig. 1. All capacitances are in µF. We combine 10-, 20-, and 30- µ F capacitors in parallel to get 60 µ F. The 60 - µ F capacitor in series with another 60- µ F capacitor gives 30 µ F.
30 + 50 = 80 µ F, 80 + 40 = 120 µ F
120- µ F capacitor in series with 80 µ F gives (80x120)/200 = 48
48 + 12 = 60
60- µ F capacitor in series with 12 µ F gives (60x12)/72 = 10 µ F
Q3 In the circuit in Fig. 2, let i s = 30e-2t mA and v 1 (0) = 50 V, v 2 (0) = 20 V. Determine: (a) v 1 (t) and v 2 (t), (b) the energy in each capacitor at t = 0.5 s.
(a) C eq = (12x60)/72 = 10 µ F
10 − 3 t − 2t ∫ 30e dt + v1 (0) = − 1250e − 2 t 0 + 50 = − 1250e − 2 t + 1300V t v1 = 12 x10 − 6 0
10 − 3 t − 2t ∫ 30e dt + v 2 (0) = 250e − 2 t 0 + 20 = − 250e − 2 t + 270V t v2 = 60 x10 − 6 0
(b) At t=0.5s, v1 = −1250e −1 + 1300 = 840.2, v 2 = −250e −1 + 270 = 178.03
1 w12 µF = x12 x10 −6 x(840.15) 2 = 4.235 J 2
1 w 20µF = x 20 x10 − 6 x (178.03) 2 = 0.3169 J 2
1 w 40µF = x 40 x10 − 6 x (178.03) 2 = 0.6339 J 2
Q4 Determine L eq at terminals a-b of the circuit in Fig. 3.
1 1 1 1 1 = + + = L = 10 mH L 60 20 30 10
L eq = 10 (25 + 10 ) = 10 x 35 45

di v = v1 + v 2 = 4 + v2 dt (2)
i = i1 + i2 i2 = i – i1 (3)
di1 di1 v 2 v2 = 3 or = (4) dt dt 3
and
di di − v2 + 2 +5 2 = 0 dt dt
di di v2 = 2 +5 2 (5) dt dt
Incorporating (3) and (4) into (5),
di di di di v v2 = 2 +5 −5 1 = 7 −5 2 dt dt dt dt 3
5 di v 2 1 + = 7 3 dt
21 di v2 = 8 dt
Substituting this into (2) gives
di 21 di 53 di v=4 + = dt 8 dt 8 dt
Comparing this with (1),
