Find the value of current( rms and peak)...

Find the value of current( rms and peak) through a capacitor of `10 mu F` when connected to a source of 110 V at 50 cycles supply. What is its capacitive reactance?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Data supplied `C = 10 mu F = 10 xx 10^(-6) F, E_(rms) = 110 V , v = 50 Hz`
` X_C = (1)/(omega C) = (1)/(2pi v C) = (1)/(2 xx 3.14 xx 50 xx 10^(-5)) = 318.5 Omega`
` I_(rms) = (E_(rms) )/(X_C) = (110)/(318.5) = 0.345 A`
