Finding angular frequency in electric circuit

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the angular frequency at which the phase difference between voltages U2 and U1 is 180 degrees in an electric circuit. The user is struggling to establish a relationship between the phase difference and angular frequency, despite attempting to compute the equivalent impedance and idle current. They have derived expressions for U_t and U2 but are unsure how to apply the phase difference to find the angular frequency. Suggestions are sought from others to clarify how to utilize the phase difference in the calculations. The thread highlights the challenge of connecting theoretical concepts with practical circuit analysis.

Homework Statement


At a certain angular frequency, the phase difference between U_{2} and U_{1} is 180^{\circ}.
a) Calculate this angular frequency
b) Calculate U_{2} at this angular frequency

See the attachment for circuit configuration.


Homework Equations


Ohms law: U = Z \cdot I
Voltage: U = \hat{U} cos(\omega t + \alpha)


The Attempt at a Solution


I can't seem to find the relation between phase difference and angular frequency.

I've tried to compute the equivalent double-pole, separating the coil with voltage U_2 from the rest och the circuit, with the following result:

Idle current:
U_t = \frac{\omega^2 L^2 + Rj\omega L}{R^2 + \omega^2 L^2} U_1

Equivalent impedance:
Z_0 = \frac{\omega^2 RCL - R - j\omega L}{\omega^2 LC - j\omega RC}

And from this I've calculated U_{2}:
U_{2} = \frac{j\omega L}{Z_0 + j\omega L} U_t

But as stated, I can't find the relation between angular frequency and phase difference. How do I use the phase difference?

I'm stuck here. Does anyone have a suggestion?
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
