An alternating voltage V(t)=220sin⁡(100\pit)V ( t ) = 220\sin \left(100\pit\right) volt is applied to a purely resistive load of 50Ω50Ω . The time taken for the current to rise from half of the peak value to the peak value is:

Correct answer

D. 3.33ms3.33ms

Step-by-step solution

i=VR=22050sin⁡(100\pit)i = \dfrac{V}{R} = \dfrac{220}{50}\sin \left(100\pit\right)
i=i\maxsin(100\pit)\text{i} = {i}_\maxsin \left(100\pit\right)
For \text{i} = \dfrac{{i}_\max}{2}:
\dfrac{{i}_\max}{2} = {i}_\maxsin \left(100\pi t\right)
sin⁡100\pit=12⇒100\pit=π6\sin 100\pit = \dfrac{1}{2} ⇒ 100\pit = \dfrac{\pi}{6}
t=1600st = \dfrac{1}{600}s
For i = {i}_\max:
{i}_\max = {i}_\maxsin \left(100\pi t\right)
sin⁡100\pit=1⇒100\pit=π2\sin 100\pit = 1 ⇒ 100\pit = \dfrac{\pi}{2}
⇒t=1200s⇒ t = \dfrac{1}{200}s

so time for \dfrac{{i}_\max}{2}to{i}_\max is
{t}_{( {i}_\max )} - {t}_{\left(\dfrac{{i}_\max}{2}\right)} = \dfrac{1}{200} - \dfrac{1}{600} = \dfrac{1}{300} = 3.33m{s}^{}
