Decide the rms current in the bulb

Reference no: EM13663839

A light bulb has a resistance of 270. It is connected to a standard wall socket (120 V rms, 60.0 Hz).

1) Decide the rms current in the bulb.

2) Determine the rms current in the bulb after a 19.5 µF capacitor is added in series in the circuit.

3) It is possible to return the current in the bulb to the value computed in part (a) by adding an inductor in series by the bulb and the capacitor. What is the value of the inductance of this inductor?
