Use the information given in the figure for the series RCL circuit to determine the phase angle between the current and the voltage.
(a) zero degrees (b) +5.3° (c) –9.6°(d) –84°(e) +90°

L= .035 H
V = 60 Hz
R = 150 ohms
C = 1.75 x 10^-6 F

Ive been trying to figure it out for an hour, the answer is -84 degrees but i dont understand how to get that.

urgh I got it, i was being stupid... i dont know why but i was taking the frequency as voltage. UFF!

angular frequency:
ω = 2πf = 2π ( 60 Hz ) = 377

capacitive reactance:
XC = 1 / ωC = 1 / ( 377 )(1.7 x 10^-6 F ) = 1560

inductive reactance:
XL = ωL = ( 377 ) ( .035 ) = 13.2

phase angle:
tan(-1) ( ( XL - XC / R ) )
tan(-1) ( -1547 / 150 )
-84 degrees

The complex impedance of the series RCL circuit is :
Z = R + j(wL - 1/wC) ( j^2 = - 1) , w = 2 pi V = 120 pi.
The phase angle is : tan(phi) = (wL-1/wC)/R
phi = tan^-1[(120 pi*0,035 - 10^6/120pi*1.75)/150] = - 84°

so ap physics is merely relatively not elementary, and as constantly relies upon on the instructor as properly (is he/she a stable instructor? plenty or little artwork, etc...) additionally relies upon on what else you're taking once you're taking ap physics, if the different instructions are not not elementary and you will concentration on the class, then it relies upon and it relies upon on you, and how the difficulty is for you, and how not elementary you prefer to artwork at it sorry if this would not help, yet there are diverse factors...
