Exam Question

A coil of resistance 10Ω and inductance 0.1H is connected in series with a capacitor of capacitance 150pF, across a 200V, 50Hz supply.

Calculate:

(a) The inductive reactance (3)

(b) The capacitive reactance (3)

(c) The circuit impedance (2)

(d) The circuit current (2)

(e) The circuit power factor (2)

(f) The voltage drop across the coil (2)

(g) The voltage drop across the capacitor. (2)

Reference Answer

### RLC Series Circuit Analysis
This problem requires the calculation of key electrical parameters for a series RLC circuit. The solution involves determining the individual and total opposition to current flow (reactance and impedance) and then using Ohm's law for AC circuits to find the current and voltage drops.
**Given Data:**
- Resistance (R) = 10 Ω
