Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A parallel circuit consists of a 100Ω resistor and a 0.1H inductor connected to a 50Hz source. Calculate the total impedance and total current drawn from the source.

💡 Hint: Remember to find the reactance before finding admittance.

Challenge 2 Hard

In a circuit with multiple branches (a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor all in parallel), how do you find the total current when the voltage is given? Assume the components have values: R = 50Ω, L = 0.2H, C = 10μF and V = 120V.

💡 Hint: Start with Ohm’s law for resistors and consider impedance for inductors and capacitors.
