1.2 Sinusoidal Waveforms 1.2 Sinusoidal Waveforms AC, or alternating current, is so named because the current alternates or flips back and forth between two polarities. In other words, the current (and consequently the voltage) is a function of time. This is fundamentally different from direct current that is fixed in ...
ACElectricalCircuitAnalysis_Page_11_Chunk511
Sine waves exhibit quarter wave symmetry. That is, each quarter (in time) of the wave is identical to any other if you simply flip it around the horizontal axis and/or rotate it upright about its peak. The time it takes to complete one cycle is called the period and is denoted with the symbol T (for Time). The reciproc...

The peak value is 4 volts and the peak-to-peak value is 8 volts (typically abbreviated as “8 V pp”). The period of one cycle is 0.2 seconds, or T = 200 milliseconds. Further, the frequency, f = 1/200 milliseconds, or 5 Hz (5 cycles in one second). AC waveforms may also be combined with a DC offset. Adding a positive DC...

Figure 1.6 illustrates the effect of phase shift. Note that in this plot, t = 0 has been moved to the center of the horizontal axis. The middle curve is the initial, or reference, wave (green). To the left (red) is a wave leading the initial wave by one- eighth cycle, or 45°. To the right (blue), is a lagging wave of h...
ACElectricalCircuitAnalysis_Page_15_Chunk515
To compute a phase shift, first determine the time differential between the waveform and the reference, which we'll call Δt. The reference may be a fixed point in time (e.g., t = 0) or another waveform. Generally, the easy way to do this is to measure the difference at the zero-crossings, assuming there is no DC offset...

f = 1 T f = 1 10 ms f = 100Hz The second issue is the DC offset. Note that the positive peak occurs at 4 amps while the negative peak occurs at −2 amps. This indicates a peak-to- peak value of 6 amps. Without an offset, the positive peak would be at 3 amps, therefore there is a +1 amp DC offset. The vertical center of ...
ACElectricalCircuitAnalysis_Page_17_Chunk517
The waveform is shifted to the left which indicates a positive or leading phase shift. If we examine the second cycle, we see that it hits zero volts at 1.8 milliseconds. Therefore the shift is 0.2 milliseconds. Expressed in degrees this is: θ = 360° Δt T θ = 360° 0.2ms 2 ms θ = 36° The final expression is: v(t)=2sin(2...

Example 1.4 Assume an oscilloscope displays two waves as depicted in Figure 1.14. Determine the phase shift of the smaller 20 volt peak (blue) waveform relative to the larger 25 volt peak (red) waveform. First, note that neither wave exhibits a DC offset.

Sines and Cosines Sines and Cosines There are a handful of specific phase shifts that are worth a closer look. If a sine wave is inverted, that is, flipped upside down, it is indistinguishable from a sine wave that has been shifted either +180 or −180 degrees. In other words, such a wave can be written three different ...

amplitude is also zero. It is also true that the sine wave is the slope of the negative cosine wave, the negative cosine is the slope of the negative sine, and the negative sine is the slope of the cosine. Moving in the reverse direction, we can say that the anti-derivative (indefinite integral) of a cosine wave is a s...

The first step is to square this waveform. A useful trigonometric identity is (sin x) 2=1 2 −1 2 cos 2 x Applying this to our wave yields: v(t) 2= 1 2 −1 2 cos(2π2 f t) This expression describes an inverted cosine wave at twice the original frequency and half of the original amplitude, riding on a DC offset equal to it...

In the case of light in a vacuum (or to a close approximation, an electrical current in a wire), the velocity is about 3E8 meters per second (i.e., 300,000 km/s) or about 186,000 miles per second.

We can see that the value of resistance does not change with frequency while the inductive reactance increases with frequency and the capacitive reactance decreases. The linear frequency scale makes the capacitor change difficult to see. If this is plotted again but using a logarithmic frequency scale as in Figure 1.25...

The effect of both capacitor size and frequency is shown in Figure 1.26 using a log frequency axis: the smaller the capacitor, the larger the capacitive reactance at any particular frequency.

It is worth noting that the plots of Figures 1.26 and 1.27 are for ideal components. In reality, all components exhibit some resistive, capacitive and inductive effects due to their construction.

This rule is convenient in that the parallel equivalent impedance need not be computed, but remember, it is valid only when there are just two components involved. When analyzing a parallel circuit, if it is being driven by a voltage source, then this same voltage must appear across each of the individual components. O...

whatever phase angle we see on a resistor's voltage, its current phase angle must be the same. The idea is to simply insert a resistor into the branch of which we wish to measure the current. As long as the resistance is much smaller than the impedance seen in the rest of that branch, it will have little impact on the ...
