RL and RC circuit original response
A first-order circuit is characterized by a first-order differential equation. This circuit contain resistor and capacitor or inductor in one close circuit.
The natural response of a circuit refers to the behaviour ( in terms of voltages and currents) of the circuit itself, with no external sources of excitation.
RL circuit: circuit that have resistor and inductor.
RC circuit: circuit that have resistor and capacitor.
Natural response RC circuit
Consider these three condition :
1. At initially, t=0 -, switch doesn’t change for some time
2. At initial, t=0 +, switch doesn’t change for some time
3. At final condition, t→∞, switch doesn’t change for some time
Known t ≤ 0, v(t) = V0.

EXAMPLESwitch in circuit for some time before

a) IL (t) at t ≥ 0
b) I0 (t) at t ≥ 0+
c) V0 (t) at t ≥ 0+
d) Total energy percentage that stored in inductor 2H that absorb by 10Ω resistor.
Answer
a) Switch close for some time until t=0, known voltage at inductor should be zero at t = 0-. Therefore, initial current at inductor was 20A at t = 0-. Thus iL (0+) also become 20A, because immidiate changes for current didn’t exist in inductor.

Step response RC circuit The step response of a circuit is its
behaviour when the excitation is the step function, which may be a voltage or a current source.
Consider these three condition :

2. At initial, t=0 +, switch doesn’t change for some time
3. At final condition, t→∞, switch doesn’t change for some time

Jawapan1. Tiada tenaga yang disimpan
