2. A 80 cycle sinusoidal current has a peak value of 20A. Determine the
instantaneous value of the current if it has a time of 0.002 sec after the wave
passes zero in positive direction. i(t )= 16.8866 A
GIVEN:
f=80 Hz
Am= 20 A
T=0.002 s
FIND:
i(t )=?

SOLUTION:
ω=2 πf =2 π ( 80 )
ω=502.6548246
i ( t )=20 sin ( 502.6548246 ) ( 0.002 )
