The current flowing through an ac circuit is given by I=5sin⁡(120\pit)AI = 5\sin \left(120\pit\right)A. How long will the current take to reach the peak value starting from zero?The current flowing through an ac circuit is given by I = 5 (120 )A . How long will the current take to reach the peak

Options

  1. A160s\dfrac{1}{60}s
  2. B60s60s
  3. C1120s\dfrac{1}{120}s
  4. D1240s\dfrac{1}{240}s

Correct answer

D. 1240s\dfrac{1}{240}s

Step-by-step solution

The current flowing through an ac circuit is given by I = 5 (120 )A . How long will the current take to reach the peak

If initial value of current is zero, then it will take T4\dfrac{T}{4} time to reach the peak value, where T=T = time period.

As we know, ω=120π\omega = 120\pi

Therefore,

t=T4=2πω4t = \dfrac{T}{4} = \dfrac{\dfrac{2\pi}{\omega}}{4} =π2ω=π2×120π=1240s= \dfrac{\pi}{2\omega} = \dfrac{\pi}{2 \times 120\pi} = \dfrac{1}{240}s
