CA radio antenna is hooked to signal filter consisting of a resistor, a variable capacitor and a 50uH inductor.
If we would like to get maximum current for the signal from our favorite country music station, US 99 (99.5MHz), what should we set the capacitor to?

Example 21.2 (Peak Current)

CheckPoint 1(A)
Consider two RLC circuits with identical generators and resistors. Both circuits are driven at the resonant frequency. Circuit II has twice the inductance and 1/2 the capacitance of circuit I as shown above.
Compare the peak voltage across the resistor in the two circuits.

Compare the peak voltage across the inductor in the two circuits
A. VI > VII B. VI = VII C. VI < VII
Voltage in second circuit will be twice that of the first because of the 2L compared to L.

Compare the peak voltage across the capacitor in the two circuits
A. VI > VII B. VI = VII C. VI < VII
The peak voltage will be greater in circuit 2 because the value of XC doubles.

At the resonant frequency, which of the following is true?
A. The current leads the voltage across the generator
B. The current lags the voltage across the generator
C. The current is in phase with the voltage across the generator

Resonance….what it means…..
frequency of the signal generator is the same as the natural frequency of the circuit.
Imax = e/RVoltage drop across the resistor is maximumXL = XC
Z has minimum valuephase angle, f, is zerovoltage and current are in sync at the signal

Example 21.3 (Power lost)
How much electrical energy was turned into thermal energy every minute in the three situations we had in example 20.2?
Recall w=60rad/sec f =-72o
w=400rad/sec f=55.7o
w =206rad/sec f = 0o
In the circuit to the right• L=500mH• Vmax = 6V• C=47uF• R=100W
Example 21.4
A bright electric light bulb and a small window air conditioner both are plugged into a wall socket with puts out Vrms=120V. Both draw Irms= 1amp of current. The light bulb has a power factor of 1 and the AC unit has a power factor of 0.85.
How much electrical energy do they consume in 1 hour?
Power Line Calculation
If you want to deliver 1,500 Watts at 100 Volts over transmission lines w/ resistance of 5 Ohms. How much power is lost in the lines?
Current Delivered: I = P/V = 15 Amps Loss = IV (on line) = I2 R = 15*15 * 5 = 1,125 Watts!
If you deliver 1,500 Watts at 10,000 Volts over the same transmission lines. How much power is lost?
Current Delivered: I = P/V = .15 Amps Loss = IV (on line) = I
2R = 0.125 Watts
Lower, but not zero!!!
Cost to you
Utility companies charge a surcharge for industrial customers with large power factors (e.g. large AC loads).
Customers can correct power factor with capacitors.
Assumed power factor for residential > 0.95.

About to talk about “Quality Factor”, Q
Just to confuse you….we’re also going to be talking about the charge on a capacitor, Q
We’ll go through the math quickly….
Hang in there. We’ll show what it means conceptually and do an example problem in the end.

Electricity & Magnetism Lecture 21, Slide 24
An electronic filter is made up of an inductor, L=0.5H, a capacitor, C=2.0uF and resistor, R=20W. It has an input signal with Vmax = 0.1V.
1) What is the resonant frequency for this filter?
2) What is the average output power at this frequency?
3) What is the quality factor Q for this filter?
4) Use this Q to estimate FWHM.

Example 21.6 (Coil in your car)
In the old days, the high voltage needed to fire the spark plugs in your car was created by “the coil”. On a typical coil, there were 200 turns the primary side and 400,000 turns on the secondary side.
If the car’s alternator provided 12 volts to the coil, what was the voltage provided to the spark plugs?
