    To determine

    Change in sinusoidal voltage graph if peak amplitude is increased.

    Answer to Problem 5.1P

    Increasing the peak amplitude stretches the sinusoidal curve vertically.

    Option (1).

    Explanation of Solution

    Given information:

    Given sinusoidal voltage is

    v(t)=Vmcos(ωt+θ)

    Calculation:

    Graph of sinusoidal voltage is

    From the graph, it is noted thatif peak amplitude Vm is increased, it stretches the sinusoidal curve vertically.

    (b)

    Expert Solution
    Check Mark
    To determine

    Change in sinusoidal voltage graph if frequency is increased.

    Answer to Problem 5.1P

    Increasing the frequency compresses the sinusoidal curve horizontally.

    Option (4).

    Explanation of Solution

    Given information:

    Given sinusoidal voltage is

    v(t)=Vmcos(ωt+θ)

    Calculation:

    Graph of sinusoidal voltage is

    Electrical Engineering: Principles & Applications, Student Value Edition Plus Mastering Engineering with Pearson eText -- Access Card Package (7th Edition), Chapter 5, Problem 5.1P , additional homework tip  2

    From the graph, it is noted that if the frequency is increased,the time period is reduced so that it compresses the sinusoidal curve horizontally.

    (c)

    Expert Solution
    Check Mark
    To determine

    Change in sinusoidal voltage graph if phase angle (theta) is decreased.

    Answer to Problem 5.1P

    Decreasing the phase angle (theta) translates the sinusoidal curve to the right.

    Option (5).

    Explanation of Solution

    Given information:

    Given sinusoidal voltage is

    v(t)=Vmcos(ωt+θ)

    Calculation:

    Graph of sinusoidal voltage is

    Electrical Engineering: Principles & Applications, Student Value Edition Plus Mastering Engineering with Pearson eText -- Access Card Package (7th Edition), Chapter 5, Problem 5.1P , additional homework tip  3

    From the graph, it is noted that if the phase angle (theta) is decreased, it translates the sinusoidal curve to the right.

    (d)

    Expert Solution
    Check Mark
    To determine

    Change in sinusoidal voltage graph if the angular frequency is decreased.

    Answer to Problem 5.1P

    Decreasing the angular frequency stretches the sinusoidal voltage graph horizontally.

    Option (3).

    Explanation of Solution

    Given information:

    Given sinusoidal voltage is
