Show hintHide hint
Think about how power can change between different points in time.
Question 2.
How do you calculate average power?
Show hintHide hint
Remember the RMS values make the equation easier to work with.
3Question 3.
What is the equation for instantaneous power in AC circuits?
Show hintHide hint
Consider what variables are involved in power calculation.
4Question 4.

- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the implications of the cosine function.
Question 5.
A circuit has a peak voltage of 300V and a peak current of 15A, find the instantaneous power at t = 0.25 seconds if the frequency is 60Hz.
Show hintHide hint
Remember to calculate the values of V(t) and I(t) first using their respective sine functions.
