A) 93.84 V
B) 106.35 V
C) 178.2 V
D) 260.99 V

Voltage Drop

The reduction in voltage across components in an electrical circuit, caused by the impedance or resistance of the components.

Capacitive Reactances

The opposition that a capacitor presents to the flow of alternating current, due to its ability to store and release energy in its electric field.

Series RC

An arrangement of a resistor and capacitor in a single line within a circuit, which influences the time constant and frequency response.

  • Compute distinct voltages and reactive power within series RC circuits.
