Study the behavior of a series RC circuit.

1. Calculate total impedance, and total current, and VR, VL, for the following frequencies, and
complete the following table for the circuit shown.

2. Use your calculation to complete the following table, show a sample of your calculation here.

Frequency Impedance Inductor voltage Resistor voltage Phase angle Total current
400 HZ
1000 HZ
4000 HZ

3. Construct the circuit on tinkercad, and use the three point frequency, measure the voltage
across the inductor, and Vr, use the values to canculate phase angle, record all these in the
following table

Frequency inductor voltage Resistor voltage Phase angle

4. Paste your tinkrcad circuit here while the circuit is on.


5. Explain your observation, what happens to the voltage across inductor, and resistor, as well as
phase angle as you are increasing frequency.

Extra Credit.
6. You can build this circuit in pspice, and verify your answer.
