hey guys,
I have a question about this circuit that I am trying to analyze and compare my theoretical and experimental results for. So basically I have this simple circuit: an AC voltage source, a 1k resistor, 1mH inductor, and 0.1uF capacitor, all in series. We apply a 1V ground-to-peak sine wave at 1kHz. We need to find the amplitude and phase across each element.
Couple questions:
1. First, does 1V ground-to-peak mean a sine wave with amplitude 2V peak-to-peak or does it mean a 1V peak-to-peak that is always positive (i.e. the minimum is above the x-axis)?
I will try to analyze the circuit and hope you can tell me if I messed up or not:
the frequency of the circuit is 1000Hz so w = 2000pi rad/s
impedances: Z across resistor = 1000ohm
Z across inductor = jwL=(j)(2000pi)(0.001) = j2pi
Z across capacitor = 1/jwC = 1 / (j)(2000pi)(0.0000001)=-j1591
so using simple voltage division, voltage across R:
Vr = Vin(1000/1000+j2pi-j1591)= 0.53 angle 57.7
Vc = Vin(-j1591/1000+j2pi-j1591) = 0.85 angle -32.2
VL = Vin(j2pi/1000+j2pi-j1591) = 3.3E-3 angle 147.7
2. Does this seem right?
Next, we were asked to use the oscilloscope to measure the phase shift for each one of those elements with respect to the input voltage. We did that by measuring the delta t (the time delay) between two peaks: the first peak being Vin and the second one belonging to the voltage across the element. For the resistor, the two peaks were lined up (no phase shifts across a resistor) but 3. how come we see an angle of 57.7 in the above theoretical calculuation?
4. What does phase shift mean in this case anyway? the phase shift we've looked at before was the phase shift between voltage and current, which is usually 90 degrees across a capacitor and -90 across an inductor (other way around?) but I am not sure of the meaning of phase shift between the input voltage and another voltage. Isn't suposed to closer to 90 and -90 for capacitors and inductors? and why there is a phase shift across the resistor?
any help would be appreciated...thanks
