Alternating current about resonance width

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on calculating the impedance (Z) in an alternating current (AC) circuit using resonance width concepts. The impedance formula is given by Z = √(R² + (X_L - X_C)²), where X_L is the inductive reactance and X_C is the capacitive reactance. Participants confirm the substitution of X_L = (ω₀ + Δω)L and X_C = 1/((ω₀ + Δω)C) into the impedance formula, leading to Z = √(R² + ((ω₀ + Δω)L - 1/((ω₀ + Δω)C))²). Additionally, the amplitude of the current is clarified as V/Z, emphasizing that Z is not a linear function of ω.

Since the question quite long and contains many formulas,
so i take a photo instead.

my question is that for part b
since [itex]Z= \sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}[/itex]

can i subst [itex]X_L = (W_0+\triangle{\omega})L[/itex]

and [itex]X_C = \frac{1}{(w_0+\triangle{\omega})L}[/itex]

into the [itex]Z= \sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}[/itex]

if it does, can u show me some of steps ?
I can derive the result from the problem in part b

By the way, what do the amplitude of current is half the resonance value?
is it [itex]I=\frac{\omega}{2}[/itex] ?

I think you meant [itex]X_C = \frac{1}{(w_0+\triangle{\omega})C}[/itex]

Yes. Work out the expression for Z by expanding:

[tex]Z = \sqrt{R^2+\left((W_0+\Delta{\omega})L -\frac{1}{(w_0+\Delta{\omega})C} \right)^2}[/tex]

and ignoring the higher order terms of [itex]\Delta\omega[/itex]
By the way, what do the amplitude of current is half the resonance value?
is it [itex]I=\frac{\omega}{2}[/itex] ?
I am not sure I understand your question here. The amplitude of the current is V/Z. Z is not a linear function of [itex]\omega[/itex]
