COMEDK · Physics · 23. Alternating Current

Output of an \(A C\) source is \(V=100 \sin 100 \pi t \cos\) \(100 \pi t\). Which of these are correct?

  1. A Peak voltage of source is 100 V
  2. B Peak voltage of source is \(50 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C Peak voltage of source is 50 V
  4. D Frequency of the source is 50 Hz
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Peak voltage of source is 50 V

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The given output voltage can be written as \(\begin{aligned} V=100 \sin & 100 \pi t \cos 100 \pi t \\ & =50 \times 2 \sin 100 \pi t \cos 100 \pi t \\ & =50 \sin 2(100 \pi t) \quad[\because 2 \sin A \cos A=\sin 2 A] \\ & =50 \sin 200 \pi t \end{aligned}\) \(\therefore\) Peak…
