Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the impedance of a capacitor at a frequency of 60 Hz with a capacitance of 10 µF?
  • Step 1: Identify the formula for the impedance (Z) of a capacitor, which is Z = 1 / (2 * π * f * C).
  • Step 2: Note the values given in the question: frequency (f) = 60 Hz and capacitance (C) = 10 µF (which is 10e-6 F).
  • Step 3: Substitute the values into the formula: Z = 1 / (2 * π * 60 * 10e-6).
  • Step 4: Calculate the denominator: 2 * π * 60 * 10e-6.
  • Step 5: Perform the multiplication: 2 * π ≈ 6.2832, then 6.2832 * 60 ≈ 376.99, and finally 376.99 * 10e-6 ≈ 0.00037699.
  • Step 6: Now, calculate Z: Z = 1 / 0.00037699.
  • Step 7: Perform the division: Z ≈ 265.2 ohms.
