Problem

A domestic AC generator supplies electricity to a house at a constant frequency of 50 Hz. (i) Calculate the time required for the generator to complete 300 full cycles. (ii) Determine the time interval between two successive instants when the current is zero (assume a purely sinusoidal wave). (iii) How many half-cycles are produced by this generator in 1 minute?
