The instantaneous power supplied to a capacitor is given by\(P_c=i_m \cos (\omega t) v_m \sin (\omega t)\).
The average power over a complete cycle would be:

  1. A \(\frac{\cos^2 \omega t}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{\sin^2 \omega t}{2}\)
  3. C Zero
  4. D -1
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Zero

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(P_c = i_m v_m \sin (\omega t) \cos (\omega t) = \frac{1}{2} i_m v_m \sin (2\omega t)\) The average value of a sinusoidal function over a complete cycle is zero. Average power \(= 0\)
