A 2 k
resistor is in series with a 0.015
F capacitor across a 15 kHz ac source. What is the magnitude of the total impedance and the phase angle?


Answer: Option
Explanation:
Xc = 1/2πfC = 707 Ω
Z = R - jXc = 2000 - j(707)
|z| = sqrt(R*R + Xc*Xc) = 2121 Ω
Phase angle = arctangent(Xc/R) = 19.5°

I think the value of Xc is not correct.

That would be :
R - (1/2πfc)i *remember that Xc is (-) while Xl is (+).
2000 - 707.3553i.
Use complex mode to convert it to polar form: 2121.4<-19.48°.
