LC Oscillations
The circuit shown in the figure consists of a capacitor C
and an inductor L. We give the capacitor an initial
chanrge Q and then abserve what happens. The capacitor
will discharge through the inductor resulting in a time
dependent current i.
We will show that the charge q on the capacitor plates as well as the current i

Alternating Current
A battery for which the emf is constant generates
a current that has a constant direction. This type
of current is known as "direct current " or "dc"
In chapter 30 we encountered a different type
of sourse (see figure) whose emf is:
E   NAB sin t  Em sin t where Em   NAB, A is the area of the generator
windings, N is the number of the windings,  is the angular frequency of the
rotation of the windings, and B is the magnetic field. This type of generator
is known as "alternating current" or "ac" because the emf as well as the current
change direction with a frequency f  2. In the US f  60 Hz.
Almost all commercial electrical power used today is ac even though the
analysis of ac circuits is more complicated than that of dc circuits.
The reasons why ac power was adapted will be discussed at the end of this
chapter.

Three Simple Circuits
Our objective is to analyze the circuit shown in the
figure (RCL circuit). The discussion will be greatly
simplified if we examine what happens if we connect
each of the three elements (R, C , and L) separately
to an ac generator.
L
C
A convention
From now on we will use the standard notation for ac circuit
analysis. Lower case letters will be used to indicate the
instantaneous values of ac quantities. Upper case letters
will be used to indicate the constant amplitudes of ac quantities.
Example: The capacitor charge in an LC circuit was written as:
q  Q cos t   
The symbol q is used for the instantaneous value of the charge
The symbol Q is used for the constant amplitude of q

In fig.b we plot the resistor current iR and the
resistor voltage vR as function of time t.
Both quantities reach their maximum values
at the same time. We say that voltage and
current are in phase.
(31 - 10)
A convenient method for the representation of ac
quantities is that of phasors
The resistor voltage vR and the resistor current iR are represented
by rotating vectors known as phasors using the following conventions:
1. Phasors rotate in the counterclockwise direction with angular speed 
2. The length of each phasor is proportional to tha ac quantity amplitude
3. The projection of the phasor on the vertical axis gives the instantaneous
value of the ac quantity.
4. The rotation angle for each phasor is equal to the phase of the

ac quantity (t in this example)

The series RCL circuit
An ac generator with emf E  Em sin t is connected to
an in series combination of a resistor R, a capacitor C
and an inductor L, as shown in the figure. The phasor
for the ac generator is given in fig.c. The current in
i  I sin t   
this circuit is described by the equation: i  I sin t   
The current i is common for the resistor, the capacitor and the inductor
The phasor for the current is shown in fig.a. In fig.c we show the phasors for the
voltage vR across R, the voltage vC across C , and the voltage vL across L.
The voltage vR is in phase with the current i. The voltage vC lags behind
the current i by 90. The voltage vL leads ahead of the current i by 90.

We distinguish the following three cases depending on the relative values
of X L and X L .
1. X L  X C    0 The current phasor lags behind the generator phasor.
The circuit is more inductive than capacitive
2. X C  X L    0 The current phasor leads ahead of the generator phasor
The circuit is more capacitive than inductive
3. X C  X L    0 The current phasor and the generator phasor are in phase

The current phasor lags behind

2. Fig.c and d: X C  X L    0 The current phasor leads ahead of the generator
phasor. The circuit is more capacitive than inductive

In our example Pheat is almost 15 % of Ptrans and is acceptable
To keep Pheat we must keep I rms as low as possible. The only way to accomplish this
is by increasing Erms . In our example Erms  735 kV. To do that we need a device
that can change the amplitude of any ac voltage (either increase or decrease)
The transformer
(31 - 25)
The transformer is a device that can change
the voltage amplitude of any ac signal. It
consists of two coils with different number
of turns wound around a common iron core.
The coil on which we apply the voltage to be changed is called the "primary" and
it has N P turns. The transformer output appears on the second coils which is known
as the "secondary" and has N S turns. The role of the iron core is to insure that the
magnetic field lines from one coil also pass through the second. We assume that
if voltage equal to VP is applied across the primary then a voltage VS appears
on the secondary coil. We also assume that the magnetic field through both coils
is equal to B and that the iron core has cross sectional area A. The magnetic flux
