Assignment 1 ENSC 320 Spring 2012

Due January 19, 2012


1) The make-before-break switch in the circuit seen in the figure below has been in position a for a long time before moving instantaneously to position b at t = 0 . a) Construct the s-domain equivalent circuit for t > 0 . (2 marks) b) Find Io and io. (4 marks) c) Find Vo and vo. (4 marks)

2) The switch in the circuit shown in the figure below has been open for a long time. The voltage of the sinusoidal source is vg = Vm sin ( t + ) . The switch closes at t = 0 . Note

that the angle in the voltage expression determines the value of the voltage at the moment when the switch closes, that is, vg ( 0 ) = Vm sin ( ) .

a) Use the Laplace transform method to find i for t > 0 . (4 marks) b) Write the expression for the current after the switch has been closed for a long time. (1 mark) c) Write the expression for the transient component of i. (1 mark) d) Find the steady-state expression for i using the phasor method. Verify that your expression is equivalent to that obtained in b. (2 marks) e) Specify the value of so that the circuit passes directly into steady-state operation when the switch is closed. (2 marks)
