The output of a power supply is represented by:
where is the potential difference in volts and
is the time in seconds. Determine, for the output of the supply:
the root-mean-square (r.m.s.) voltage,
the period .
The variations with time of the output potential difference
from two different power supplies are shown in graph I and graph II below.
The graphs are drawn to the same scale. State and explain whether the same power would be dissipated in a resistor connected to each power supply.
