To find the time taken by a 60 Hz alternating current (AC) to reach its peak value from zero, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between frequency and time period The frequency (f) of an AC signal is the number of cycles per second. The time period (T) is the duration of one complete cycle of the AC signal. The relationship between frequency and time period is given by the formula: \[ T = \frac{1}{f} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the time period for 60 Hz Given that the frequency \( f = 60 \, \text{Hz} \): ...
