Q6. For the circuit shown below,

a. Find Zt.
b. Determine the currents I1, I2, and I3.
c. Calculate the total power provided by the voltage source.
d. Determine the average powers P1, P2, and P3 dissipated by each of the impedances.
Verify that the average power delivered to the circuit is the same as the power dissipated by
the impedances.
Ans: a. ZT = 5 k Ω - j2 k Ω = 5.385 k ∠-21.80° Ω
b. I1= 9.285 mA ∠21.80°
I2 = 18.57 mA ∠68.20°
I3 = 20.761 mA ∠ 85.23°
c. PT = (50 V)(9.285 mA)cos 21.80°
=431.0 mW
d. P1 = (9.285 mA)2(1 k) = 86.2 mW
P2 = (18.57 mA)2(1 k) = 344.8 mW
