Introduction to AC�The electric power out of a home or office
power socket is in the form of alternating current (AC), as opposed to the direct current (DC) of a battery.
�Alternating current is used because it is easier to transport, and easier to “transform” easier to transport, and easier to “transform” from one voltage to another using a transformer.
� In Nigeria and UK, the frequency of oscillation of AC is 50 Hz. In the USA it is 60 Hz.

A coil of area A and N turns rotating with constantangular velocity in a uniform magnetic field producesa sinusoidal emf.
The slip rings and brushes allow the coil to rotatewithout twisting the connecting wires. Such a device iscalled a generator.

RLC Circuits with AC Power� When an RLC circuit is driven with an AC power
source, the “driving” frequency is thefrequency of the power source, while the circuitcan have a different “resonant” frequency.
� Let’s look at three different circuits driven by anAC EMF. The device connected to the EMF iscalled the “load.”

called the “load.”
� What we are interested in is how the voltageoscillations across the load relate to the currentoscillations.
� We will find that the “phase” relationshipschange, depending on the type of load(resistive, capacitive, or inductive).
Leading & Lagging in Phasors� The figure shows, in (a), a
sine curve S(t) = sin(ωdt)and three other sinusoidalcurves A(t), B(t), and C(t),each of the form sin(ωdt–φ).

The Transformer
Because of the iron core, there is a large
A transformer is a device to raise or lower the voltage in a circuit without an appreciable loss of power. Power losses arise from Joule heating in the small resistances in both coils, or in currents loops (eddy currents) within the iron core. An ideal transformer is that in which these losses do not occur, 100% efficiency. Actual transformers reach 90-95% efficiency
Because of the iron core, there is a large magnetic flux through each coil, even when the magnetizing current Im in the primary circuit is very small . The primary circuit consists of an ac generator and a pure inductance (we consider a negligible resistance for the coil). Then the average power dissipated in the primary coil is zero. Why?: The magnetizing current in the primary coil and the voltage drop across the primary coil are out of phase by 90º 1

A resistance R, load resistance, in the secondary circuit
A current I2 will be in the secondary coil, which is in phase with the potential drop V2
across the resistance. This current sets up and additional flux Φ´turn through each turn, which is proportional to N2I2. This flux opposes the original flux sets up by the original magnetizing current Im in the primary.

However, the potential drop in the primary is determined by the generator emfAccording to this, the total flux in the iron core must be the same as when there is no load in the secondary. The primary coil thus draws an additional current I1to maintain the original flux Φturn. The flux through each turn produced by thisadditional current is proportional to N1I1. Since this flux equals – Φ´turn, theadditional current I1 in the primary is related to the current I2 in the secondary by
These curents are 180 º out of phase and produce counteracting fluxes. Since I2 is in phase with V2, the additional current I1 is in phase with the potential drop across the primary. Then, if there are no losses
