  1. Question1
    (2+j)(-1+j/2)

    We first bring downstairs upstairs
    So j/2 = 1/2j

    (2+j)(-1+1/2j)

    Now (a+b)(a+b)
    Is a2 +ab+ab+b2
    Therefore
    -2+j-j+1/2j2
    -2+1/2j2
    But j2 = -1
    So Ans = -2-1/2 = -5/2

  2. question3
    first you multiply (3+2j)by j
    = 3j+2j^2
    but j^2= -1

    therefore
    (-2+3j)(6-4j)
    -12+8j+18j-12j^2
    as j^2= -1
    then
    -12j^2= +12

    therefore
    -12+8j+18j+12
    -12+12+8j+18j
    Ans= 26j

  3. Question 1

    (2 + j) (-1 + j/2)

    Now there are many ways to work this question, Goldfinger did the first and I will do a second.

    Instead of bringing everything upstairs we can leave it as it is and expand.

    (a + b) (a + b) = a^2 + ab + ab + b^2

    This Implies

    (2 × -1) + (2 × j/2) + (j × -1) + (j × j/2)

    The 2 in the second brackets will cancel each other.

    j × j/2 = j^2/2


    The equation then becomes

    -2 + j + (-j) + j^2/ 2

    Recall j^2 = -1
    The js will cancel one another

    Now:

    (-2) + (- ½) = -2 – ½

    Answer = - 2 ½

  4. Question 2

    (1 + 4j) ^2

    This is the same as (1 +4j) (1+4j)

    Now Recall (a+b) (a+b) = a^2 + ab + ab + b^2

    Therefore: 1^2 + 4j + 4j + (4j) ^2

    Simplify:
    1 + 8j + 16j^2

    Recall j^2 = -1

    This Implies, 1 + 8j + (-1) (16)

    Therefore,
    (1 – 16) + 8j = -15 + 8j

  5. recall: √-1 = j and j^2 = -1

    Question 3. j(3+2j)(6-4j)

    get rid of the brackets by expanding;

    taking j(3+2j) => 3j + 2j^2 => this can be broken down into:

    3j + 2(-1) => -2 + 3j

    then multiply (-2+3j) (6-4j) = -12 +8j +18j -12j^2

    simplify: -12 +26j -12(-1)

    answer = 26j

    NB; when expanding brackets remember to use ur loops.

  6. A 10 ohm resistor in series with a 2 microfarad capacitor is connected parallel to a 20 ohm resistor in series with a 0.5 H inductor. If the source voltage is 24volts and the frequency is 50hz, find the total impedance (Z) and the phase angle.

  7. Question 3

    j (3 + 2 ) ( 6 – 4j )

    First we work out

    j ( 3 + 2)

    We then get,

    (3 × j) + (2 × j) = 3j + 2j

    Now the equation becomes

    (3j + 2j) (6 – 4j)

    Recall (a + b) (a + b) = a^2 + ab + ab + b^2

    So the result is then

    18j – 12j^2 + 12j – 8j^2

    = 18j + 12j – 12(-1) -8(-1)

    = 18j + 12j + 12 + 8

    = 30 j + 20 ( final answer)

  8. Question 3 Alternate Method

    j ( 3 +2 ) ( 6 – 4j )

    We can expand the brackets (ignoring the j)

    (3 + 2) (6 – 4j)

    = 18 + 12 – 12j – 8j

    Now we multiply this new equation by j

    j ( 18 + 12 – 12j – 8j )

    = 18j +12j – 12j^2 – 8j^2

    = 18j +12j – 12 (-1) – 8 (-1)

    = 18j + 12j + 12 + 8

    Answer = 30j + 20

  9. QUES 4
    the mudulus is when u sqaure both terms(imag and real) add them and find the sqaure root for it

    the argument is u find the angle, well am not quite sure how to explain it, but using this fomula sure help

    tan=imag/real
    and u make  the subject of the formula to find the angle

    A)√(1)^2+(1)^2
    =√2
    arg tanQ=1/1
    Q=45degrees +ve 1st quadrent


    B)√(1)^2+(2)^2
    =√5
    arg tanQ=2/1
    Q=63.4 degrees +ve 1st quadrent



    C)√(-2)^2+(5)^2
    =√29
    arg tanQ=5/2
    =68.2 because in -ve 2nd quadrent
    Q=180-68.2
    Q=111.8 degrees


    D)√2-√(-36) = √(2)^2+(-6)^2
    =√40

    arg tanQ=6/2
    =71.6 because in -ve 4th quadrent
    =360-71.2
    Q=289 degrees


    E)√(-3)^2+(-5)^2
    =√34

    arg tanQ=5/3
    =59 because in +ve 3rd quadrent
    Q=180+59

  11. 2)

    (1 + 4j)^2

    we bring it to simpler terms by removing the square, so we don't get confused when multiplying;

    (1 + 4j) (1 + 4j)

    1 + 4j + 4j +16j^2

    1 + 8j + 16(-1)

    8j - 15

  12. 3) j(3 + 2j)(6 -4j)

    first thing, we expand the brackets,

    (3j + 2j^2) (6 -4j)

    after expanding the first term, i placed it back in brackets, so ill know what im multiplying;

    18j + (-12j^2) + 12j^2 - 8j^3

    18j - 8j^3

    10j^2

    10(-1)

    -10

  14. QUES 5

    first things first when wroking these types of questions, you have to look out for two things. one is the police. make sure when multipling or adding you use your calculators and second thind is the upstairs and down stairs. when u see questions like these you have to find what is called the condjrigate. This is that the value that is in the denominator and sitch the sign that is in front of the imaginary trem. then you multiple out the trems or expand the brackets. you will end up having no imanginary trems in the denominator.


    A) (−1 + j)/(1 + j) X (1 - j)/(1 - j)
    = -1+j+j+1 / 1-j^2 j^2=-1
    = 2j/2 = j


    B) j / (1 + 3j) X (1 - 3j)/(1 - 3j)
    =j+3 / 1-9j^2 j^2=-1
    =j+3 /1+9
    =j+3/10


    C) (3 − 4j)/(12 + 8j) X (12 - 8j)/(12 - 8j)
    =36-24j-48j+32j^2 / 144-64j^2 j^2=-1
    = 36-24j-48j-32 / 144+64
    = 4 - 72j / 208


    D) (2 − 3j)/(52 + 13j) X (52 - 13j)/(52 - 13j)
    =104-26j-156j+39j^2 / 2704-169j^2
    =65-182j / 2873

  15. How to answer this question
    '(5 + 3j)^2

    ReplyDelete
  16. 2 answer yur question darky..
    always try to remove ur powers if u could.
    this makes it easer 4 d eys to see.

    recall j^2 = -1

    (5+3j)(5+3j)
    = 25 + 15j + 15j + 9j^2
    = 25 + 25j + 9(-1)
    = 25 + 25j -9
    = 25 - 9 + 25j
    = 16 + 25j

  17. wel darky
    (5 + 3j)^2
    is the same as saying
    (5 + 3j)*(5 + 3j)
    so this means you multiply everything in equation 2 by 5
    (5*5)+(5*3j)
    Then you multiply everything in equation 2 by 3j
    (3j*5)+(3j*3j)
    now add the to parts together and you get
    (5*5)+(5*3j)+(3j*5)+(3j*3j)
    and that is equal to
    =25+15j+15j+9j^2
    and remember that j^2=-1
    so this means
    =25+30j+(9(-1))
    =25+30j-9
    =16+30j

  18. and zipper 15j + 15j is equal to 30j not 25j

  19. renjisan if my eyes aren't playing a trick on me, for ques 4.
    Part C asked for
    -2+3j not -2+5j
    which wud be
    (-2^2)+(3^2) all to be squarerooted
    which is equal to
    =√(4+9)
    =√13
    and in Part D
    you were inconsistant wen you square rooted your terms. you said that
    √2-√(-36) = √(2)^2+(-6)^2
    =√40
    i dont tink that so
    cuz you also suppose to square root 2
    so i think the correct working is suppose to be
    √2-√(-36) = (√2^2)+(√(-36)^2)
    and that is equal to
    =2+36
    =38
    wel i think thats the correct ansa,
    any1 wants to confirm my ansa?

  20. no 2
    (1 + 4j)(1 + 4j) = 1^2 + 4j + 4j + 16^j^2
    = 1 + 8j -16
    = -15 + 8j

    ReplyDelete
  21. no 2

    j(3+2j)(6-4j)

    to work this out we have to work the bracket first:

    j(18-12j+12j-8j^2) = j(18+8)
    = 26j

  22. hey cold some one please tell me what is meant by the word argument and what are they asking you to find?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Evaluate (1 + 4j)^2

    that is the same as
    (1+4j)(1+4j)
    so this = 1+4j+4j+4j^2
    an j^2 =-1
    -3+8j

  24. ridiclyric you mixed up your answer for question 2. The correct way to do it is how it is done above in Blade's answer. Please review it and practice another one like it

  25. The modulus is basically squaring the real and the imaginary and adding dem and the the root ..for dese kind of questions u hav to look out for police and downstairs...

  26. I suppose the word arguement in the question was for you to explain different ways of answering the question.

  27. Question3
    Evaluate j(3 + 2j)(6 -4j)

    firstly you open out the brackets (3+2j)by j
    = 3j+2j^2
    but j^2= -1

    therefore
    (-2+3j)(6-4j)

    Now we open out the brackets again
    -12 + 18j + 8j +12j^2
    but j^2= -1
    then

    -12 + 18j + 8j + 12(-1)

    therefore
    -12+8j+18j-12
    -24+26j
