Determining Tension Drop Over a Capacitor with AC Components

[georg gill]

Homework Statement

ac with R-C coponents. Determine the tensiondrop over a capacitor in a circuit with ac.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

In the solution they use components of the V in sin and cos for the V of the capacitor but should it not be squared and then the root of this with pytagoras (why not). That is my first question. The answermanual is here: Assignment 1c. It is in norwegian but all the equations are written in a box at the right side:

And is it possible to use tex here?

Dear fellow scientist,

Thank you for your question and for sharing the link to your assignment. I am happy to help clarify the solution for you.

Firstly, regarding your question about using squared and square root in the solution, it depends on the specific circuit and the values of the components involved. In some cases, using squared and square root may be necessary, but in others, it may not be needed. It ultimately depends on the mathematical relationships and equations involved in the circuit analysis.

Regarding your second question about using Tex, unfortunately, it is not possible to use Tex in this forum. However, you can use LaTeX to type your equations and then take a screenshot or use a tool like MathJax to convert them into a format that can be displayed here.

I hope this helps clarify your doubts. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
