Click For Summary

Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around a phasor circuit problem involving a resistor, capacitor, inductor, and a voltage source. The original poster seeks to determine the value of \(\omega\) that results in a zero forced response voltage \(v_0\) in the circuit.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking, Mathematical reasoning

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants discuss the relationship between the impedances of the capacitor and inductor, questioning the original poster's calculations and assumptions regarding the impedance values. There are attempts to derive the conditions under which the output voltage \(V_{OUT}\) becomes zero.

Discussion Status

Some participants have provided guidance on the correct impedance formulas and have engaged in verifying the calculations presented by the original poster. Multiple interpretations of the circuit behavior are being explored, particularly concerning the resonant frequency.

Contextual Notes

There is an ongoing discussion about the correct application of phasor equations and the implications of impedance in the circuit. The original poster's setup and assumptions are being scrutinized, and there are references to specific values and conditions that may affect the outcome.

Homework Statement



What value of \omega will cause the forced response v_0 in the circuit below to be zero?

Homework Equations



Phasor eqs.

The Attempt at a Solution



i\,=\,\frac{50\,-\,V_1}{2\Omega}\,=\,\frac{V_1\,-\,V_2}{5\,j\,\Omega}\,=\,\frac{V_2}{20\,j\,\Omega}

If I substitute V_1\,=\,0, then I get:

25\,=\,-\frac{V_2}{5\,j\,\Omega}\,=\,\frac{V_2}{20\,j\,\Omega}

How do I use this to find \omega?

If you want Vo to be zero, the impedance of the series connection of the capacitor with the inductor must be zero.
You got the impedance of the capacitor wrong.
Z_C = \frac{-j}{\omega C}
Z_L = j \omega L

Z\,=\,\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega

V_{OUT}\,=\,\frac{Z}{Z\,+\,2\Omega}

We want V_{OUT} to be zero:

0\,=\,\frac{\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega}{\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega\,+\,2\Omega}\,V_{IN}

0\,=\,\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega}

-\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,=\,20j\omega

\omega\,=\,\frac{1}{10}

Is that right?

We want V_{OUT} to be zero:

0\,=\,\frac{\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega}{\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,12j\omega\,+\,2\Omega}\,V_{IN}

0\,=\,\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,+\,20j\omega}

-\frac{1}{5j\omega}\,=\,20j\omega

\omega\,=\,\frac{1}{10}

Yes, the impedance is zero at the resonant frequency \omega_0 = \frac{1}{(LC)^\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{10}
