An Ac Series Circuit Consists of a Voltage Source of Frequency

question 23

Short Answer

An ac series circuit consists of a voltage source of frequency 60 Hz and voltage amplitude V, a 533-Ω resistor, and a capacitor of capacitance 6.4 μF. What must be the source voltage amplitude V for the average electrical power consumed in the resistor to be 989 W? There is no inductance in the circuit.
