Question
If the voltage in a.c. cirucit is represented by the equation.
Calculate (a) peak and rms value of the voltage, (b) average voltage, (c) frequency of a.c.
Solution
(a) For a.c. voltage, V = V0 sin (ωt – ϕ)
The peak voltage value is ,
The rms value of voltage
(b) Average voltage in full cycle is zero.
Average voltage in half cycle is
(c) As,
i.e.,
which, is the required frequency of AC .
