a.) Find the angular velocity, frequency and period of the wave.
SOLUTION:
The angular velocity is the coefficient of t;
So = rad/sec
b.) Sketch the graph of current versus time for one cycle of the wave from t=0.
SOLUTION:

a.) In the following figure, find the frequency, period, and angular velocity of each ac
wave.
SOLUTION:
The period is the time for one cycle, so for IP, T=10 ms, and for VP, T= 10 ms
The frequency of IP , f = = = 100 Hz,
and the frequency of VP , f = = = 100 Hz
b.) Find the phase angle difference and time difference between the two ac waves.
SOLUTION:
The phase angle difference between the two waves is because the waves are
shifted of a cycle with respect to each other
Since t = = = s = 2. 5 ms (and we can check that on the graph).

Given the AC wave, V=180 sin ), find the peak value (amplitude), angular
velocity, phase angle, frequency and period of the wave.
SOLUTION:
Peak value = 180 volts
Angular velocity = =
Phase angle = rad
Frequency, f = = = 65 Hz
Period, T= = 15 ms

The tip of a one-link robot is located at = rad at time t=0 sec,
as shown in the figure. It takes 2 seconds for the robot to move from rad to
+ 2 rad. If l = 10 in, plot the x- and y-components as a function of time. Also find the
amplitude, period, phase angle, and timeshift.
SOLUTION:
Amplitude = l = 10 in
The period is equal to the time required to travel rad, thus T=2 sec
The frequency is determined as f = = = 0.5 Hz
Also, = 2f = 2 (0.5) = rad/s

Use the trigonometry identity sin(A+B)=sin(A)cos(B)+cos(A)sin(B) to re-write this sine
function representing voltage, M sin (2 +
SOLUTION:
M sin (2 + = M sin(2t) cos + M cos (2t) sin

a. An AC voltage wave takes 3ms to go from 0 to peak value. What are the
frequency, period, and angular velocity of the wave?
SOLUTION:
83 Hz
12 ms
520 rad/s
b. If the peak value of the voltage wave is 120V and the phase angle = 0 rad, write
the equation of the wave.
Solution:
V=120sin520t

A series RL circuit is subjected to a sinusoidal voltage of frequency 120
The current i(t) = 10 cos (120 ) A is flowing through the
circuit. The voltage across the resistor and inductor are given by :
vR (t) = 10 cos (120 )
vL (t) = 12 cos (120 ) volts, where t is in seconds.
a. Write down the amplitude, frequency (in Hz), period (in seconds), phase shift (in
degrees), and time shift (in seconds) of the voltage, vL (t).
SOLUTION:
Amplitude = 12 V
Frequency = f
F= = = 60 Hz = f
SOLUTION:
c. The total voltage across the circuit is given by v(t) = vR (t) + vL (t).
Write v(t) in the form, v(t) = M cos (120 + ) (i.e) find M and )
