Problem

The maximum values of the alternating voltage and current are 400 V400\,\text{V} and 20 A20\,\text{A}, respectively, in a circuit connected to a 50 Hz50\,\text{Hz} supply. These quantities are sinusoidal. The instantaneous voltage and current are 2002 V200\sqrt{2}\,\text{V} and 10 A10\,\text{A}, respectively. At t=0t=0, both are increasing positively. (a) Write down the expression for voltage and current at time tt. (b) Determine the power consumed in the circuit.
