Power in RLC Circuits

Power in RLC Circuits

Analysis:

1. For Laboratory Application Assignment on pgs. 711-712 examine Figs. 23-34a and Figs. 23-34b.
2. Perform all required calculations in the following sections: 
   • Real Power, Apparent Power, and Power Factor
   • Power Factor Correction
3. Scan all calculations showing all work 

Simulation:

1. Construct the circuit in Figs. 23-34a with MultiSIM. (Do not construct Fig. 23-24b or measure the phase angle in the last part of section “In Figure 23-24a” on pg. 712.)
2. Confirm all calculations in Step 2 with measurements made with MultiSIM
3. Capture a screenshot of the measurements and waveforms on a DMM 
4. Answer all questions in the following sections in the same document:
   • Real Power, Apparent Power, and Power Factor
   • Power Factor Correction
   • In Figure 23-34a
