1. A steady-state sinusoidal voltage waveform v t V t( ) cos= ω is applied to the input of the RC couplingnetwork presented in the diagram below.
(a.) Using phasors, derive a general expression for the voltage v to ( ) . DO NOT base your analysis on
the current which flows in the circuit. If you use the current in your analysis you will get no credit inthe grading of this problem.
Solution: First, let’s state a general procedure for analyzing circuits using phasors. It is as follows:
Now let’s apply this procedure to Part (a.) of Problem 1.
Step 1. Let $V be the phasor transform of v t( ) . Let $Vo be the phasor transform of v to ( ) .
Step 2. Recognize that the RC coupling network shown in the figure is nothing more than a voltagedivider, really. (It’s true that it is a frequency-dependent voltage divider, since the reactance of Cdepends on frequency. But it’s still basically a voltage divider.) Therefore, applying the voltagedivider equation:
v t V t( ) cos= ω

General Procedure - Analyzing Circuits Using Phasors Step 1. Establish notation.
• capital letters and “hats” for phasor voltages and currents• lowercase script letters and “(t)” for time-domain voltages and currents
Step 2. Apply Ohm’s law, the voltage divider equation, KVL, KCL, etc. using phasor voltagesand currents.
Step 3. Solve for the phasor form of the unknown voltage or current.• if you know you are going to need to transform back to the time domain, get the
phasor form of the unknown in polar form. Then transforming to the time domainwill be easy.
Step 4. Transform back to the time domain, if asked to get voltage or current as function of time.

Now we need to express this result as a complex number in polar form in preparation for converting
back to the time domain. But in order to do this, we need to know what $V is (specifically, whether it’spurely real, purely imaginary, or complex). So we make the following aside:
We know that v t V t( ) cos= ω . (This was given in the problem statement.) So $V V= , where V (no“hat”, notice) is the amplitude of v t( ) . So it is a real number. Therefore:

There are at least a couple of ways you could proceed now to get $Vo in polar form. One way that’s
frequently a quick one is to immediately put into polar form any complex expressions appearing in thephasor expression. So that is what we will do:
Aside: The procedure for finding the phasor transform of a sinusoidal function of time can be statedsimply as follows. If we have a function f t( ) which, when expressed as a cosine, has the form
f t A t( ) cos( )= +ω θ , then the phasor transform of f t( ) (let’s call the phasor transform $F ) will be
$F Ae j= θ .
And it will always turn out this way: The phasor form will always look like
( ) ( )amplitude e j phase .
in which (amplitude) and (phase) are the amplitude and phase of the time-domain function.If the time-domain function has a phase of zero (for example, suppose f t A t( ) cos= ω ) then the
phasor transform will be just the amplitude of f t( ) :
$F Ae Aj= =0 .

(b.) Show analytically that at sufficiently high frequency the output is an essentially perfect replica ofthe input.
If we let ω → ∞ , then 1

v t V to ( ) cos→ ω
which is exactly the same as the input voltage v t( ) .

v t V RC t RC V to ( ) ( ) cos sin→ + = −ω ω ω ω90ob g b g
But the factor in parentheses is the derivative of the input:
v t RCd
dtv to ( ) ( )→
So at low frequencies, the RC coupling network gives you an output that’s proportional to thederivative of the input. For this reason, the RC coupling network is called a differentiator at lowfrequencies.
Now, why does the problem say the output should be a “severly attenuated” waveform? Well,
v t V RC to ( ) sin→ − ω ωb g
and the factor ωRC goes to zero (gets much smaller than 1) as ω → 0 . So at low frequencies, theamplitude of the output is much less than V .
2. Consider the series LRC circuit shown below with a steady-state sinusoidal voltage source:
v t V t( ) cos= ω

Once again, do NOT base your analysis required below on knowledge of the current in the circuit.
(a.) Using phasors, derive a general expression for the voltage v tR ( ) across the resistor R.
Solution:
Step 1. Let $V be the phasor transform of v t( ) and $VR be the phasor transform of v tR ( ) .
Step 2. Recognizing the circuit as a voltage divider, we apply the voltage divider equation:

Step 3. Get $VR in polar form. To do this, we need to know whether $V is purely real, purely imaginary, or
complex. Since v t V t( ) cos= ω (given), $V will be just the amplitude of v t( ) :
$V V=
