A 15-F AC capacitor is connected in series with a 50 resistor. The capacitor has a voltage rating of 600 WVDC. The capacitor and resistor are connected to a 480-V, 60-Hz circuit. Is the voltage rating of the capacitor sufficient for this connection?
You find that a 25-F capacitor connected to 480 VAC is defective. The storeroom has no capacitors with a 480-VAC rating. However, you find two capacitors rated at 50 F and 370 VAC. Can these two capacitors be connected in such a manner that they can replace the defective capacitor? If yes, explain how they are connected and why the capacitors will not be damaged by the lower voltage rating. If no, explain why they cannot be used without damaging the capacitor.

The attached image shows a circuit with an AC voltage source, a resistor, inductor, and capacitor connected in series. The circuit has the following characteristics: Resistor resistance: 10 ohm Capacitor capacitance: 0.05 F Inductor inductance: 13 H Current Amplitude: 4 A Voltage amplitude across the source: 60 V Frequency at the source: 0.3 Hz Voltage amplitude across the resistor: 35 V Voltage amplitude across the capacitor: 37 V Voltage amplitude across the inductor: 80 V (a) Calculate the RMS voltages from the amplitudes above. From the RMS voltages across the capacitor, inductor and resistor, calculate the RMS voltage of the AC source. Hint: Vrms = V0/sqrt(2) Vrms = sqrt( (Vrms,R)2 + (Vrms, L - Vrms, C)2 ) (b) Calculate the RMS value of the current (c) Using the resistance, capacitance, inductance, and the frequency of the AC voltage, calculate the impedance Z. From this, and the previously measured value of Vrms, find the RMS value of the current in the circuit.
