An alternating quantity is represented by a sinusoidal waveform which is described in the general trigonometric form as follows:x= X max sin theta (wt.57,3 plus minis alpha). State what each symbol represent
- x: The alternating quantity represented by the waveform.
- Xmax: The maximum amplitude or magnitude of the waveform.
- sin: The sine function used to define the waveform.
- θ: The phase angle, which represents the initial offset of the waveform.
- wt: The radian frequency, which is the product of the angular frequency (w) and time (t).
- 57.3: This is just a numerical constant and does not represent any specific symbol.
- α: The phase constant or phase shift, which represents additional phase offset or shift in the waveform.
