a. What is the peak power used by the resistor?
b. What is the average power used by the resistor?
c. What is the period of the power? (hint – remember this is a sin squared function. The negative part of the
normal sine function is flipped positive. So you have to go over two bumps to get back to the start of the wave.)
d. Write the equation for the power as a function of time.
e. You measure the rms current (with a multimeter) to be 3 A. What is the peak voltage across the resistor?
[8.25 V]
f. Write the equation for the voltage as a function of time.
g. Write the equation for the current as a function of time.
