The energy stored by a system of capacitors is given by
U= \frac{1}{2}C_{eq} V^2
where Ceq is the equivalent capacitance of the system, and V is the voltage applied.

In the formula, we can see there is a direct proportionality between U and C. This means that if we want to increase the energy stored by 4 times, we have to increase C by 4 times, if we keep the same voltage.

Calling C_1 = 270 pF the capacitance of the original capacitor, we can solve the problem by asking that, adding a new capacitor with C_x, the new equivalent capacitance of the system C_{eq} must be equal to 4C_1. If we add the new capacitance X in parallel, the equivalent capacitance of the new system is the sum of the two capacitance
C_{eq} = C_1 + C_x
and since Ceq must be equal to 4 C1, we can write
C_1+C_x = 4C_1
from which we find
C_x=3C_1=3 \cdot 270 pF=810 pF

The frequency of oscillation of a certain LC circuit is 299 kHz. At time t = 0, plate A of the capacitor has maximum positive ch
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given an LC circuit

Frequency of oscillation

f = 299 kHz = 299,000 Hz

AT t = 0 , the plate A has maximum positive charge

A. At t > 0, the plate again positive charge, the required time is

t =

t = 1 / f

t = 1 / 299,000

t = 0.00000334448 seconds

t = 3.34 × 10^-6 seconds

t = 3.34 μs

it will be maximum after integral cycle t' = 3.34•n μs

Where n = 1,2,3,4....

B. After every odd multiples of n, other plate will be maximum positive charge, at time equals

t" = ½(2n—1)•t

t'' = ½(2n—1) 3.34 μs

t" = (2n —1) 1.67 μs

where n = 1,2,3...

C. After every half of t,inductor have maximum magnetic field at time

t'' = ½ × t'

t''' = ½(2n—1) 1.67μs

t"' = (2n —1) 0.836 μs

where n = 1,2,3...
