The current flowing through an ac circuit is given by I = 5 sin 120 π t A . How long will the current take to reach the peak value starting from zero?
Options
- A1 60   s
- B60   s
- C1 120   s
- D1 240   s
Correct answer
D. 1 240   s
Step-by-step solution
If initial value of current is zero, then it will take T 4 time to reach the peak value, where T = time period. As we know, ω = 120 π Therefore, t = T 4 = 2 π ω 4 = π 2 ω = π 2 × 120 π = 1 240   s
