In the previous chapter, we have been dealing mainly with direct current resistive circuits in
order to the principles of the various theorems clear. As was mentioned, these theories are
equally valid for a.c.

For the circuit shown in the figure, if the frequency of the supply is 50 Hz, determine using
Ohms Law and Kirchoffs Laws the current I in the 160 capacitor.
Impedance of capacitor and inductor at 50 Hz are
j XL = j 2 50 63.66 103 = j 20

In order to show that the working is correct, I have selected the reverse problem for this
example and used the results of the previous example to find the original quantities. You can
see that the answers differ only due to the cumulative calculation errors.
