I have already provided the solutions for parts b), c), and the circuit diagram for d) i) in our previous conversation. For part d) ii), the question is not fully visible in the image. However, based on the context of a series RC circuit, common follow-up questions involve calculating the capacitive reactance and the total impedance of the circuit. I will proceed with these calculations. Given values for part d): Capacitance C = 1.20 F = 1.20 × 10^-6 F Resistance R = 300 AC supply voltage V_rms = 20 V Frequency ✂️ _That answer was long and got cut off. Reply continue and I'll finish it._
