Example For a circuit shown in figure below & = 100 V, R₁5, R₂ = 102 andC = 8μF.wR₂I =Figure 13: Example. What is the initial battery current immediately after the switch S is closed?• Solution: Immediately after the switch is closed, the capacitor is uncharged.Thus, there is essentially no voltage drop across it, and it is like a wire. Thus,resistor R₂ is short-circuited and so the battery current is€RI =R₁ER₁1005= 20 A• What is the battery current a long time after the switch S is closed?• Solution: A long time after the current has been running through the circuit,the capacitor will be fully charged and so no current can pass through it. Thus,the current will flow through both R₁ and R₂ and will completely ignore the wirewith the capacitor on it. The current is then:E100R₁ + R₂ 5 + 10(22)6.67 A(23)

You are a journeyman electrician working in an industrial plant. Your task is to connect an inductor to a 480-V, 60-Hz line. To determine the proper conductor and fuse size for this installation, you need to know the amount of current the inductor will draw from the line. The nameplate on the inductor indicates that it has an inductance of 0.1 H. An ohmmeter reveals that it has a wire resistance of 10 . How much current should this inductor draw when connected to the line?
Using superstition, find the value of i0 if voltage source at the left is 10, angle - 30 degrees V, and current source is 2, angle zero degrees. A total of three sources will be considered, separately. The 24 volt source is DC. When this source is acting alone, the capacitor will be open-circuited.
