If there are only a resistor and a capacitor in the circuit, then the phase shift will indeed be between 0 and 90 degrees. When the resistor and capacitor are in series, the phase shift will be negative when the capacitor is connected to a source voltage and the resistor is the load. The phase shift will be positive when the resistor is connected to the source. The lower the values of R and C, the higher the frequency bandwidth.

With the resistor and capacitor connected in series and the two parts connected to a current source, the phase shift will be negative. At high frequencies, the output voltages is lower, and the circuit appears as a very low impedance. At low frequencies, the circuit looks more like a resistor. Again, the phase shift will be between 0 and 90 degrees.

Comment

The correct term is phase angle, not 'phase shift'. By definition, the phase angle is the angle by which the load current leads or lags the supply voltage. For an RC circuit, the current leads the voltage, so the phase angle is a leading phase angle.

What is Impedance for an RLC circuit in series?

1. The RLC series circuit is a very important example of a resonant circuit. It has a minimum of impedance Z=R at the resonant frequency, and the phase angle is equal to zero at resonance.AnswerThe impedance of an RLC circuit is the vector sum of the circuit's resistance, inductive reactance, and capacitive reactance -all of which are expressed in ohms. This applies whether the circuit is at resonance or not.


Why does a phase shift occur in a ce transistor?

In any transistor circuit , there is a phase shift. It takes a finite time for the controlling signal, usually on the base connection, to have an effect on the circuit and cause a change to the output. The shape of the signal remains but it is shifted in time (phase). The difference varies by configuration. It can be as much as180 degrees if the circuit is inverting the signal. The addition of passive components add to the shift.


What is the phase relationship between the input and output voltage of a common emitter amplifier?

In common emitter amplifier circuit, input and output voltage are out of phase. When input voltage is increased then ib is increased, ic also increases so voltage drop across Rc is increased. However, increase in voltage across RC is in opposite sense. So, the phase difference between the input and the output voltages is 180 degrees.


What are the condition for oscillation?

There are three conditions. These include positive feedback, the phase near the circuit needs to be either 36 or zero degrees, and the loop gain should be equal or greater than 1.

Compare the phase relationship between the voltage and current in a purely resistive circuit and an RL circuit?

In a pure resistive circuit the voltage and current are in phase. In an inductive circuit they are fro zero to 180 degrees out of phase. If they are in phase the Power Factor is 1 and 180 degrees the PF is zero. The exact amount of the phase difference depends on the specific circuit.

Why the voltage drop across inductance and voltage drop across capacitance is greater than source voltage in series resonance circuit?

The reason for the total voltage drops across the capacitance and inductance IN AN AC CIRCUIT has to do with the different phase angles of the voltages.First, current is the same value and same phase angle everywhere in a series circuit. But, voltage across a capacitor lags current by 90 degrees (capacitor current leads voltage). Next, voltage across a pure inductance leads current by 90 degrees (inductor current lags voltage).The rule that all voltages in a series circuit have to add to the supply voltage still applies, but in this case, the voltage drops are added VECTORALLY, not arithmetically. If you were to graph this addition, you would show any resistance voltage in phase with the current, the capacitor voltage at -90 degrees to the current and the inductor voltage at +90 degrees to the current, for a phase difference between them of 180 degrees, cancelling each other out.In a series resonant circuit, the impedances of the capacitor and inductor cancel each other. The only impedance to the flow of current is any resistance in the circuit. Since real-life inductors always have some resistance, at least there is always some resistance in a series resonant circuit.
