Ig = 1mA
Given: V = 150v
Vm = 400v
Ig = 1mA Rl = 200ohms
V = 100v
Vm = 200v α=?
Rl = 100ohms Vave = ?
Iave = ?
α=? Po=?
Φ=?
Iave = ? Solution:
v = Vm sin θ
Solution:
v = Vm sin θ 150 = 400 sin θ
Given: 2(𝜋−𝛼)+sin 2𝛼
Vrms2= Vm2
4𝜋
α = 60°
Vm = 200v
2(𝜋−𝛼+sin 2𝛼)
Rl = 100ohms Vrms = Vm√

Vave = ? But find the Vm first since it is not indicated as a
Iave = ? peak voltage
2(𝜋−𝜋3)+sin 120°
Vrms = (156)√
