  1. Two impedances, Z 1 =( 3 +j 6 ) and
    Z 2 =( 4 −j 3 )are connected in series to
    a supply voltage of 120V. Determine the
    magnitude of the current and its phase angle
    relative to the voltage.

  2. If the two impedances in Problem 2 are con-
    nected in parallel determine the current flow-
    ing and its phase relative to the 120V supply
    voltage. [27.25A, 3. 37 ◦lagging]

  3. A series circuit consists of a 12resistor, a
    coil of inductance 0.10H and a capacitance of
    160 μF. Calculate the current flowing and its
    phase relative to the supply voltage of 240V,
    50Hz. Determine also the power factor of the
    circuit. [14.42A, 43. 85 ◦lagging, 0.721]

  4. For the circuit shown in Fig. 20.11, determine
    the currentIflowing and its phase relative to
    the applied voltage. [14.6A, 2. 51 ◦leading]

    nitude and direction of the resultant of the
    coplanar forces given below, which are act-
