The voltage of the domestic electric supply is represented by the equation V = 311 sin314.2t. Determine the frequency of the a.c. supply [\(\pi\) = 3.142]

  • A. 50.0Hz
  • B. 100.0Hz
  • C. 311.0Hz
  • D. 314.2Hz

Correct Answer: A. 50.0Hz

Explanation

V = 311 sin314.2t compare with,

V = V sin2\(\pi\)Ft

2\(\mu\)F = 314.2

F = \(\frac{314.2}{2 \times\ 3.142}\)

F = 50Hz
