A 240 V (RMS), 60 Hz voltage source is applied to a series LCR circuit consisting of a 50-ohm resistor, 0.5 H inductor, and a 20 µF capacitor. Find the capacitive reactance of the circuit. Find the inductive reactance of the circuit. Find the impedance of the circuit. Find the phase angle for the circuit. Find the RMS current in the circuit. Find the average power consumed in this circuit. If the inductance could be changed to maximize the current through the circuit, what would the new inductance L' be? How much RMS current would flow in that case?
