    1 a

    c 20ms
    1 = 50Hz
    d Frequency = T1 = 0.020

    2 a
    I0 = peak value of current = 2A
    = angular frequency
    = 2f = 250 = 100rads1
    b I=2sin(100t)

    The exact starting point on the graph may be


    different, but the trace has an amplitude of 1cm
    and one complete wave is 1cm horizontally.
    I

    3 a
    I0 = 5A
    = 120rads1
    = 60Hz
    Frequency f = 2

    8 Rearrange Vrms = 20 to give


    V0 = Vrms 2 = 230 2 = 325V

    230 = 0.23A
    b Irms = Rrms = 1000
    c Power dissipated, P = (Irms)2R
    = (0.23)21000 = 53W

    325 = 105.6
    d Peak power dissipated, P = R0 = 1000
    110W

    4 a
    V0 = peak value of voltage = 300V
    = 100rads1
    = 50Hz
    frequency f = 2
    b At t = 0.002s, V = 300sin(1000.002)
    = 3000.588 = 176V
    c V / V

    11

    Alternative answers are given here because


    there are two ways of interpreting the
    diagrams and the numbers of turns.
    a Step-up: 15:5 = 3, or 16:6 = 2.7
    b Step-down: 4:8 = 0.5, or 5:9 = 0.56
    c Step-up: 30V or 27V; step-down: 5.0V or 5.6V

    12

    Step-up ratio required = 400kV


    25kV = 16
    So number of turns = 162000 = 32000 turns

    300
    0

    9 Power dissipated, P = (Irms)2R = 20 R = 02



    = (3.0)2 100

    5 Amplitude = 25 = 10V
    Period T = 410 = 40ms

    Frequency = T1 = 0.040

    40 t / ms

    a Vs = Vp turns ratio = 2010 = 200V
    I
    Is = turnspratio = 50
    10 = 5mA
    b Power P = VI
    If no power loss occurred,
    P = 2000.005 = 1.0W
    Actual power = 1800.0045 = 0.81W
    So percentage of power that is wasted
    = (1.00.81)
    = 19%

    Diode 3 is pointing the wrong way, so the


    current flows through diode 4, through R and
    then through diode 1.

    16

    17

    The voltage will be half-wave rectified.


    Current can flow through diode 2 when
    terminal A is positive. When terminal B is
    positive, current cannot flow because there is
    no complete path to terminal A.
