AC Flashcards
MEAN VALUE OF ac
the value of steady current which would sent the same amount of charge thru a crk in a half cycle as is sent by AC
Root mean value of AC
the value of DC which would generate the same amount of heat in a given R in a fiven time as is done by AC in the same resistance in the same time
wattless current or idle current
the current which consumes no power for its maintenance
which all circutis show watt less current
inductive and capacitive
pavg= 0 as
pavg= ErmsX Irms X cos 90
which reactive element
lead current byπ/2
lag current byπ/2
- capacitor only crk
- inductor only crk
acceptor crk
if several voltages having diff freq are subjected to a series LCR crk, the crk responds most readily to tat FREQ which matched with wr or resonance frequency allowing only that voltage
