Engineering Circuit analyse -- LR circuit frequency response

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around solving for X in an LR circuit frequency response problem, using the equations V1(t)=8cos(12000t) and V0(t)=Xcos(12000t+θ). Participants express frustration with the complexity of the problem, indicating a need for clarity on techniques such as phasors and transfer functions. Suggestions include using phasor impedances and voltage dividers to approach the solution. There is a consensus that understanding these concepts is crucial for progressing in the analysis. The conversation highlights the importance of mastering phasor techniques for effective circuit analysis.

I've tried quiet a lot actually, but all in vain. Seems like I am either misunderstanding something, or i am just too tired to think at the moment. Either way, I am frustated!

What technique would you expect to use for this type of problem? If the inductor were replaced with a resistor, what would your answer be?

Have you worked with Phasors? What about Differential Equations? You will probably use one of those techniques to solve this, depending on what you have been learning in class...
 
we have mostly been working with phasors, which is those tools i am using.

I know that the following.

v(t)=Re{Vejωt}=VAcos(ωt+Φ)

and

V=VAe=VA∠Φ

somehow I can't seem to get further then this.

I am considering to use the transfer function, and use that to solve for X

If the inductor were replaced with a resistor, what technique would you use?

And with the inductor put back in place, how can you use phasor impedances to do a similar calculation?
 
Hmm I would probably use the voltage divider

Could I not do that with the transfor function?

I take that as an yes :D

Yep. And if you want to see some good examples of how to work with them, just do a Google Images search on Phasor Voltage Divider... :smile:
