Solution

(i) Reactance of inductor (XL)

The formula for the reactance of an inductor is XL = 2πfL, where f is the frequency and L is the inductance.

Substituting the given values, we get:

XL = 2π * 50Hz * 6mH = 2 * 3.14 * 50 * 6 * 10^-3 = 1.884 Ohms

(ii) Reactance of capacitor (XC)

The formula for the reactance of a capacitor is XC = 1 / (2πfC), where f is the frequency and C is the capacitance.

Substituting the given values, we get:

XC = 1 / (2π * 50Hz * 6.5μF) = 1 / (2 * 3.14 * 50 * 6.5 * 10^-6) = 490.5 Ohms

(iii) Impedance of circuit (Z)

The formula for the impedance of a series circuit is Z = sqrt(R^2 + (XL - XC)^2), where R is the resistance, XL is the reactance of the inductor, and XC is the reactance of the capacitor.

Substituting the given values, we get:

Z = sqrt((2.5Ω)^2 + (1.884 Ohms - 490.5 Ohms)^2) = sqrt(6.25 + 238370.6) = 488.24 Ohms
