    This document provides an introduction to alternating current (AC) waves and sinusoidal waveforms. It defines key concepts such as time period, frequency, effective (RMS) value, phase difference, and impedance for AC circuits. The objectives are to familiarize students with AC waveforms and how to measure voltage, current, and impedance in simple AC circuits using an oscilloscope, function generator, resistors, and capacitors. Experiments are described to observe sinusoidal voltage and current waves with different frequencies, measure their RMS values, and determine the phase difference between waves in a circuit.

    To study ac (sinusoidal) wave forms and correlate them with practically measurable
    effective values. An understanding on a simple ac circuit is also expected to be
    developed in the experiment.
    -ntroduction,
    Any periodic variation of current or voltage where the current (or voltage), when
    measured along any particular direction, goes positive as well as negative, is defined to
    be an AC quantity. inusoidal AC wave shapes are the ones where the variation (current
    or voltage) is a sine function of time.
