Answer

(a) $23.0W$ (b) $0.9W$ (c) $0.9W$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $P_{avg}=\frac{V_{rms}^2}{Z^2}.R$ As $Z=R$ $\implies P_{avg}=\frac{V_{rms}^2}{R^2}.R$ $\implies P_{avg}=\frac{V_{rms}^2}{R}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\implies P_{avg}=\frac{(24)^2}{25}$ $P_{avg}=23.0W$ (b) We know that $Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $Z=\sqrt{(25)^2+(166\pi \times 325\times 10^{-3}-\frac{1}{166\pi \times 45.2\times 10^{-6}})^2}$ $\implies Z=128\Omega$ Now $P{avg}=\frac{V_{rms}^2}{Z^2}\times R$ $\implies P_{avg}=\frac{(24)^2}{(128)^2}\times 25$ $P_{avg}=0.9W$ (c) We know that $Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $Z=\sqrt{(25)^2+(41.5\pi \times 325\times 10^{-3}-\frac{1}{41.5\pi\times 45.2\times 10^{-6}})^2}$ $\implies Z=128\Omega$ Now $P_{avg}=\frac{V_{rms}^2}{Z^2}\times R$ $\implies P_{avg}=\frac{(24)^2}{(128)^2}\times 25$ $P_{avg}=0.9W$
