Answer:
Hz
Explanation:
In alternating current (AC) circuits, voltage (V) oscillates in a sine wave pattern and has a general equation as a function of time (t) as follows;
V(t) = V sin (ωt + Ф) -----------------(i)
Where;
V = amplitude value of the voltage
ω = angular frequency = 2 π f [f = cyclic frequency or simply, frequency]
Ф = phase difference between voltage and current.
<u><em>Now,</em></u>
From the question,
V(t) = 230 sin (100t) ---------------(ii)
<em><u>By comparing equations (i) and (ii) the following holds;</u></em>
V = 230
ω = 100
Ф = 0
<em><u>But;</u></em>
ω = 2 π f = 100
2 π f = 100 [divide both sides by 2]
π f = 50
f = Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the voltage is Hz
