ECE 3254: Industrial Electronics Sample Midterm 1: Homework 3, Form: A
Name: Student Number: TA: Date: Optional Problems. The following text problems do not need to be turned in, but they are typical of the kind of questions likely to appear on the exam. You may find it useful to review these problems as you study. 6.61, 6.43, 6.89, 6.90, and 6. True/False. Mark the following statements as either true (T) or false (F). If the answer is
false, either provide a counterexample, correct the statement to make it true, or provide a concise explanation to explain why the statement is incorrect. Answer these questions on this paper.
For two phasors V 1 and V 2 , the magnitude of V 1 + V 2 is equal to the sum of the magni- tudes of V 1 and V 2.
Charge is the time rate change of current.
KCL, KVL, and Ohm’s law cannot be used to correctly solve AC circuits.
At any node in a circuit, the sum of the currents entering the node is precisely equal to the sum of the currents leaving the node.
A series RC circuit will behave the same way for an input sinusiod of any frequency.
If a device has an applied voltage of 10 V and a current of 2 A leaving the positive termi- nal, the device is consuming 60 W.
The graph of a circuit’s frequency response (a Bode plot) cannot be used to calculate its response to sinusoidal inputs.
Short Answer. Answer the following questions on your own paper. Start each problem on a new page, and include your name and the page number at the top of every page.
For t ≥ 0, write the differential equation in terms of inductor current iL(t) that govents this circuit’s behavior. Recall that a generic 2nd^ order differential equation is of the form
f (t) =
∂^2 x(t) ∂t^2
∂x(t) ∂t
For R = 25Ω, C = 1μF, and L = 2mH, find the damping coefficient, undamped resonant fre- quency, and damping ratio. Is this system overdamped, underdamped, or critically damped. Finally, find the steady-state values of vL(t), iL(t), vC (t), and iC (t).
