AC Test

Second Test for SCC AC class

TermDefinition
Q, Circuit XL/R ac, circuit
E xl Q Circuit Egen
QCircuit E xl/ Egen or XL / RT
fo 1 / 2pi (sq rt)LC
Bandwidth BW = (tr)f
Q coil XL/R ac, coil or XL / RW
Frequency number of cycles per second in sine wave
Period The time taken in one cycle in seconds
Cycle waveform reaches complete set of positive and negative values
RMS (or effective value) AC produces same average power as steady (DC) power
Phase Shift Delay between two waveforms
Fc boundary in frequency response where energy begins to reduce
Fo natural frequency where a medium vibration at highest amplitude
Bandwidth range of frequencies where output voltage (current volue) equals 70.7% of max amps
Q ratio of energy stored/dissipates per cycle
Low Pass Filter filter that passes signals with f lower than cutoff f
High Pass Filter filter that passes signals with f higher than cutoff f
Bandpass filter passes f within range
Notch Filter Weakens small range f signals and allows other f to pass
Phase relationship between current through and voltage across an inductor Current lags voltage by 90 deg.
Phase relationship between current through and voltage across an capacitor voltage lags current by 90 deg.
Phase relationship between current through and voltage across an resistor In Phase (out of phase 0 deg)
What is reactance and how is it calculated? non-resistive component of impedence XL-XC or XC-XL
What is impedance and how is it calculated? opposition to electric flow Z = √ (R 2 + (|X L - X C |
At resonance, reactance (XL-XC) is Zero (XL=XC)
Minimum impedance Z=R
Angle between EL and EC 180 deg.
Angle between ET and ER 0 deg
Desired value of Q 10 or more
Desired value of R Low
When f is greater than f0 Inductive
Phase angle between I line and E line Leading Current
I Line Max value (IC=IL)
EL or EC Q x E line
RL Circuit Low Pass Filter XL = 2 pi FL (FL up XL up) (Inductor)
RL Circuit High Pass Filter XL - 0 ohms (F up XL up) parallel with output
RC Circuit Low Pass Filter XC-0 ohms (F up XL down)
RC Circuit High Pass Filter XC = 0 ohms (Capacitor) XC=1 / 2 pi FC
RC Coupling Circuit Blocks DC (low f), Passes AC (high f)
At Cutoff, f of RC coupling circuit output V is 70.7% of Emax
When f of V applied to inductor doubles Reactance doubles
When current doubles Power becomes 4 x original power
When V is applied to capacitor Current leads V by 90 deg
When V is applied to resistor Voltage and Current are in Phase
When V is applied to inductor Voltage leads current by 90 deg
Resonance XL=XC Phase angle is 0 deg
XL and XC are how out of phase with each other 180 deg.
BW Formula Fr / QCircuit
Fr occurs at same time as Fco
At Resonance what is at minimum? Zt
At Resonance what is at maximum? It

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
