Oscillator’s Operation:

At 0, the capacitor is fully-charged, the inductor has no stored energy.

At ¼T, the capacitor is fully-discharged, the inductor has all the stored energy.
At ½T, the capacitor is fully-charged, the inductor has no stored energy.
At ¾T, the capacitor is fully-discharged, the inductor has all the stored energy.
At T, the capacitor is fully-charged, the inductor has no stored energy.

The equation of the charge in a capacitor is given by : q(t) = Qm·cos(wt + θ)

Since i(i) = d(q)/dt, i(t) = -wQm·sin(wt + θ)

The total energy is given as, U = ½ Q2/C

The energy stored in the capacitor is given as, → UC = ½ [Q/2]2/C = ¼ [½ Q2/C] = ¼ U
Thus, the energy stored in the inductor is given as → UL = U – ¼ U = ¾ U

From W = ½ CV2 360μF = ½ C (15)2 C = 3.2μF

The voltage across the capacitor is 40μF = ½ 3.2μF (V) 2 VC = 5 volts

Thus, the voltage across the inductor is VL = 15 – 5 = 10 volts

The equation of the charge in a capacitor is given by : q(t) = Qm·cos(wt + θ)

Since i(i) = d(q)/dt, i(t) = -wQm·sin(wt + θ)

w= = = 1490 rad/sec
( )

At t = 0 i(t) = -wQm·sin(wt + θ) → 20·10-3 = -1490Qm·sin(θ) → Equation 1

q(t) = Qm·cos(wt + θ) → 10·10-6 = Qm·cos(θ) → Equation 2

Dividing Equation 1 by Equation 2 would yield θ = 53.13O

From Equation 2 10·10-6 = Qm·cos(53.13O) → Qm = 16.67 μF
