2. Calculate the magnitude and phase shift (polar form) of the voltage across the resistance R3,
vo in the network given in Fig. 2. The voltage source vi =10cos(ωt) V, the resistances R1 = 220
Ω, R2 = 2.2 kΩ, R3 = 1 kΩ, R3 = 1 kΩ, C1 = 0.47 μF, C2 = 1.5 μF, L = 30 mH, frequency f = 2.5
kHz. (8)

3. A variable capacitor has been connected in parallel to a coil with an inductance of 0.15 H
and resistance of 1 kΩ across a 2 V, 10 kHz AC supply as given in Fig. 3. Calculate:
(a) the capacitor capacitance when the supply current is minimum;
(b) the impedance of the circuit under resonance; and
(c) the supply current under resonance. (3)

4. The switch has been open for a long time, and the circuit given in Fig. 4 has reached a steady
state before the switch closes at time t = 0. Find the capacitor voltage v(t) for t ≥ 0. Given, v(0)
= 7.2 V. (5)
