Question

You are viewing a read out of an oscilloscope that shows you when different voltages in a circuit maximize. If the period of the circuit is 0.04 seconds, how much time is there between when the capacitor voltage maximizes and the inductor voltage maximizes ?

Answer 1

Answer:

The time is  $t = 0.02 \ s$  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The period of the circuit is  $T = 0.04$

Generally voltage maximization of the capacitor occurs during the voltage minimization of the inductor and vise versa

So the time between the voltage maximization of the capacitor and that of the inductor is mathematically represented as

           $t = \frac{T}{2}$

=>        $t = \frac{0.04}{2}$

=>        $t = 0.02 \ s$
