    Engineering RC parallel circuit, find the value of R and C

    I agree that the way you have explained is much simpler, ill ask my lecturer on what his method is. Thanks for your help.

    Engineering RC parallel circuit, find the value of R and C

    I worked out R= 118K ohm and C = 1.37x10-8. I checked by putting the values back into the equation and got the correct z. I guess i don't understand what my lecturer is going on about finding the common denominator etc.

    Engineering RC parallel circuit, find the value of R and C

    If i do 1/z i would get 8.485x10-6 +j 4.323x10-4. I am not sure on how i would get and RC from 1/z = (1+jwRC)/R.

    Engineering RC parallel circuit, find the value of R and C

    Homework Statement The circuit is a Parallel RC Z= 105KΩ∠-27 and Frequency is 50 Hz. I was given the following information and hints. 1/z = 1/R + jwc I need to find the common denominator of 1/R + jwc, Invert it to find z and simplify Z into one real and one imaginary part...

    Engineering Finding R and C from a parallel RC circuit

    If i do 1/z i would get, 0.000008485 +j0.000004323 but I am still not sure where R and C would come from.
