Summary
Students will learn how to calculate properties of AC circuits. The document provides examples and asks students to do calculations of their own.
Parallel Inductive Circuit
AC circuit analysis is shown in a parallel inductive circuit. Students have to calculate the equivalent impedance, total current and other values for a given circuit.
Series RC Circuit
The charging of a capacitor in a series RC circuit is considered. Students must calculate the time taken for the capacitor voltage to reach certain values.
RLC Circuit Analysis
An RLC circuit is analysed to find its equivalent impedance and currents. Students also calculate the real, reactive and apparent power, and the power factor.
MultiSIM Simulation
Students are asked to build the circuit in MultiSIM and run a Single Frequency Analysis. They must confirm their calculations and capture screenshots of the results.
Key terms
- Impedance
- The total opposition to current flow in an AC circuit.
- Phasor values

- Real power
- The power dissipated in a circuit, measured in watts.
- Reactive power
- The power stored and released in inductive and capacitive elements.
- Power factor
- The ratio of real power to apparent power in an AC circuit.
- Equivalent impedance
- The total impedance of a circuit, combining resistors, inductors and capacitors.
