Consider a series RLC circuit where R=25.0 Ω, C=35.5 μF, and L=0.0940 H, that is driven at a frequency of 70.0 Hz. Determine the phase angle ϕ of the circuit in degrees.

Explanation:

The phase angle of an RLC circuit  ϕ is expressed as shoen below;

ϕ =

Xc is the capacitive reactance = 1/2πfC

Xl is the inductive reactance = 2πfL

R is the resistance = 25.0Ω

Given C = 35.5 μF, L = 0.0940 H, and frequency f = 70.0Hz

Xl = 2π * 70*0.0940

Xl = 41.32Ω

For the capacitive reactance;

Xc = 1/2π * 70*35.5*10⁻⁶

Xc = 1/0.0156058

Xc = 64.08Ω

Phase angle ϕ =

ϕ =

Since tan is negative in the 2nd quadrant;

Hence the phase angle ϕ of the circuit in degrees is 137.69°
