Physics Question on Alternating current
The frequency of an alternating current is 50 Hz. What is the minimum time taken by current to reach its peak value from rms value?
A
0.02s
B
5×10−3 s
C
10×10−3 s
D
2.5×10−3 s
Answer
2.5×10−3 s
Explanation
Solution
We know that Vrms=V0sinωt 2V0=V0sinωt ∴sinωt=(21) i.e.,ωt=4π⇒T2π.t=4π ∴t=8T Time for current to reach from rms value to peak value is i.e.,lrms→l0 4T−8T=8T(2I0→I0) f=50∴t=8I =50×81=4001=0.25×10−2 =2.5×10−3sec∴[D]iscorrect.
