STANDARD Physics AC Voltage MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

The relation between an ac voltage source and time in SI units is V = 120 sin(100 πt) cos(100 πt) V. The value of peak voltage and frequency will be respectively

A

120 V and 100 Hz

B

120/√2 V and 100 Hz

C

60 V and 200 Hz

D

60 V and 100 Hz

Correct Answer

Option D

Detailed Explanation

Using the identity sin(2θ) = 2sinθcosθ, the equation becomes V = 60 sin(200 πt) V, indicating a peak voltage of 60 V and frequency of 100 Hz.
