Question

a) What is the phase angle?
b) What is the power factor for this circuit?
c) What is the impedance of the circuit?
d) What is the rms voltage of the source?
e) What average power is delivered by the source?
f) What is the average rate at which electrical energy is converted to thermal energy in the resistor?
g) What is the average rate at which electrical energy is dissipated (converted to other forms) in the capacitor?
h) What is the average rate at which electrical energy is dissipated (converted to other forms) in the inductor?

I'm just unsure what to do on parts e) through h). Also, if someone could check my answers on a) through d) just to make sure I did it right. Thanks.

Explanation / Answer

(a), (b) ,(c) and (d) are correct, power factor wont be having any units as its a ratio of two powers.

(e) P=Irms2R=48.6W

(f) Same as (e)

(g) 0 (an ideal inductor can not dissipate any energy, it can only store energy)

(h) 0 (an ideal capacitor can not dissipate any energy, it can only store energy)
