SINUSOIDS

𝑣𝑣(𝑡𝑡) = 𝑉𝑉𝑚𝑚 sin 𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔

Note that: 𝑣𝑣(𝑡𝑡 + 𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛) = 𝑣𝑣(𝑡𝑡),
where 𝑛𝑛 = 1, 2, 3, …

A periodic function is one that satisfies𝑓𝑓(𝑡𝑡) = 𝑓𝑓(𝑡𝑡 + 𝑛𝑛𝑛𝑛), for all 𝑡𝑡 and for all integers 𝑛𝑛.
2𝜋𝜋 1
𝑇𝑇 = and 𝑓𝑓 =

Thus, 𝜔𝜔 = 2𝜋𝜋𝜋𝜋

𝑣𝑣2 = 12 sin�𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 − 10° �. State which sinusoid is leading.

Solution: 𝑣𝑣1 = 10 cos�𝜔𝜔𝜔𝜔 − 130° � and

PHASORS

𝑧𝑧 = 𝑟𝑟∠𝜙𝜙 Polar form
𝑧𝑧 = 𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑒 𝑗𝑗𝑗𝑗 Exponential form

Where:
𝑦𝑦
Cartesian → Polar: 𝑟𝑟 = �𝑥𝑥 2 + 𝑦𝑦 2 𝜙𝜙 = tan−1
𝑥𝑥

Polar → Cartesian: 𝑥𝑥 = 𝑟𝑟 cos 𝜙𝜙, 𝑦𝑦 = 𝑟𝑟 sin 𝜙𝜙

Thus, z may be written as

𝑧𝑧 = 𝑟𝑟∠𝜙𝜙 = 𝑥𝑥 + 𝑗𝑗𝑗𝑗 = 𝑟𝑟(cos 𝜙𝜙 + 𝑗𝑗 sin 𝜙𝜙) where 𝑗𝑗 = √−1

Example Evaluate the complex number �40∠50° + 20∠−30° � 2

Solution:

Using polar to rectangular transformation,

40∠50° = 40�cos 50° + 𝑗𝑗 sin 50° � = 25.71 + 𝑗𝑗 30.64

20∠−30° = 20�cos�−30° � + 𝑗𝑗 sin�−30° �� = 17.32 − 𝑗𝑗 10

• Adding them up gives: 40∠50° + 20∠−30° = 43.03 + 𝑗𝑗 20.64 = 47.72 ∠25.63°

• Taking the square root of this: �47.72 ∠25.63° � = 6.91 ∠12.81°
