Expert Solution
Step 1

Given source frequency (f) is 14 Hz,

The value of voltage V in the circuit is,

V=Vsin(2π×f×t)

where V is the voltage at the time t, V is the peak value of voltage, f is the frequency and t is the time.

As given, the circuit is consisting of resistance R in series connection to a voltage source.

Thus, current in the circuit by using Ohm's law can be defined as,

I = VR

Substituting the value of the voltage at time t in the above equation, 

I = VRsin(2π×f×t)=Isin(2π×f×t)

where, I=VR is the peak value of current in the circuit.
