Homework #8 Physics 11b Morii 4/14/2005 Due 4/22/2005, 4 PM in mailboxes outside Science Center 109 Read: Chapter 34, 35. Instructions: Please box your solutions. The homework problems are graded out of 3 points, and then the total re-scaled to 30. For each problem, in order to get full credit, you must also include a sentence explaining the most important idea you used in order to solve it. Do not summarize the whole solution, simply the one most important idea. HW Problems 1. Serway & Jewett 33.7 An audio amplifier, represented by the AC source and resistor in the figure below, delivers to the speaker alternating voltage at audio frequencies. If the source voltage has an amplitude of 15.0 V, R = 8.20 Ω, and the speaker is equivalent to a resistance of 10.4 Ω, what is the time-averaged power transferred to it? 2. Serway & Jewett 33.12 + 33.18 (a) A 20.0-mH inductor is connected to a standard electrical outlet (∆Vrms = 120 V; f = 60.0 Hz). Determine the energy stored in the inductor at t = (1/180) s, assuming that this energy is zero at t = 0. (b) A 1.00-mF capacitor is connected to a standard electrical outlet (∆Vrms = 120 V; f = 60.0 Hz). Determine the current in the capacitor at t = (1/180) s, assuming that at t = 0, the energy stored in the capacitor is zero. 3. Serway & Jewett 33.24 Four circuit elements—a capacitor, an inductor, a resistor, and an AC source—are connected together in various ways. First the capacitor is connected to the source, and the rms current is found to be 25.1 mA. The capacitor is disconnected and discharged, and then connected in series with the resistor and the source, making the rms current 15.7 mA. The circuit is disconnected and the capacitor discharged. The capacitor is then connected in series with the inductor and the source, making the rms current 68.2 mA. After the circuit is disconnected and the capacitor discharged, all four circuit elements are connected together in a series loop. What is the rms current in the circuit?4. Serway & Jewett 33.40 A series RLC circuit has components with following values: L = 20.0 mH, C = 100 nF, R = 20.0 Ω, and ∆Vmax = 100 V, with ∆v = ∆Vmax sin ωt.

Serway & Jewett 33.47 In the transformer shown in the figure below, the load resistor RL is 50.0 Ω. The turn ratio N1:N2 is 5:2, and the source voltage is 80.0 V (rms). If a voltmeter across the load measures 25.0 V (rms), what is the source resistance Rs? 6.
