Characteristics of Alternating Currents
 

Characteristics of Alternating Currents problem 19


The variation with time of the output of an alternating voltage supply of frequency is shown in the graph below.




  • Use the graph above to state


    • the time ,


    • the peak value of the voltage,


    • the root-mean-square voltage ,


    • the mean voltage .


  • The alternating supply is connected in series with a resistor of resistance . Calculate the mean power dissipated in the resistor.
