Question
Write an expression for an alternating emf that varies sinusoidally with time. Show graphically variation of emf with time.

Answer

An alternating emf that varies sinusoidally with time is given by $e=e_0 \sin \omega t$, where $e_0$ is the maximum value of the emf, called the peak value, and co is the angular frequency of the emf. $\omega=2 \pi f=\frac{2 \pi}{T}$, where $f$ is the frequency of the emf, expressed in $Hz$, and $T$ is the periodic time of the emf expressed in second.

Using these data, we can plot e versus t
