Question 2

(a) The instantaneous value of an alternating voltage is given by:
Vet) = 10 sin(100 ttt + 30°)
Calculate the signal's:
           (i)        frequency;
           (ii)       average value;
           (Hi)      rms value.
(b) Draw one cycle of sinusoidal waveform and indicate the following:
            (i)        peak-to-peak values;
            (ii)       period.

OBSERVATION

The expected answers were:



(a) (i)
(ii)
(iii)


w = 2rcf = 100 tt
f= ~=50 Hz
211:
Average value = 2xpeakvalue= 0.636 x peak value
11:
= 2xlOV = 0.636 x 10 = 6.36 V
11:
1
rms value = .,f2Vpeak
= 0.707 x Vpeak = 7.07 V



                 (b)                   v ~

The question was on Circuit Analysis. The question was very unpopular with the
candidates. The performance was reported fair.
