Well, I figured out how to calculate the voltage = v = 169.7/sqr(2).. But I don't understand where the sqrt(2) comes from in this formula?

A voltage source of v(t) = 169.7sin200t V is connected across a series combination of a resistance of 10 ohm, an inductance of 10mH, and a capacitance of 500 uF. Determine the current in the circuit, the apparent power, the real power, and the reactive power supplied by the source. What is the...

What is the secondary current in a single-phase distribution transformer that is attached to a 480v line when the transformer is supplying 120v to a 16kW reactive load with a power factor angle of 40°. So I have kVA = 16kW/cos 40 = 20.89kVA Is = 1000 * 20.89kVA / 120v = 174A. I don't...

I think I see now.. You mean r1 and r6? Then that would in series with the equivalent.

Well I have redraw it but I don't see two other components that I can remove.. R6 is in the middle so I can't combine it with anything.. I'm confused.. Already spent 4 hours on this questions..

The problem I am having is determining what is in series and what is in parallel. Now I am working with v1, so I1 has been removed and replaced with an open circuit and v2 has been replaced with a short. So does that mean that r2 || r4? and if so, does that also mean that r2 || r4 which...
