Homework Statement
A circuit is constructed with an AC generator, a resistor, capacitor and inductor as shown. The generator voltage varies in time as ε = Va - Vb = m*sin(ωt), where m = 24.0 V and ω = 187.0 radians/second. At this frequency,the circuit is in resonance with the maximum value of the current I = 0.5 A. The capacitance C = 130.0μF. L = 0.2199751 H.
Homework Equations
Energy capacity of a capacitor = ½CV2
Energy capacity of an inductor = ½LV2
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried to calculate the energy in terms of plugging in the peak voltage into the energy equation. However, this doesn't yield the correct answer. So I tried combining the energy capacity of both the conductor an the inductor, but this didn't work either. I'm not sure where to proceed.
