The correct Answer is:
To find the effective (RMS) value of the instantaneous current given by \( I(t) = 2 + 3 \sin(\omega t) \) A, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the RMS value The effective (RMS) value of a current is defined as: \[ I_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{T} \int_0^T I(t)^2 \, dt} \] where \( T \) is the time period of the current. ### Step 2: Square the instantaneous current We need to compute \( I(t)^2 \): \[ I(t) = 2 + 3 \sin(\omega t) \] Squaring this gives: \[ I(t)^2 = (2 + 3 \sin(\omega t))^2 = 4 + 12 \sin(\omega t) + 9 \sin^2(\omega t) \] ### Step 3: Substitute into the RMS formula Now, we substitute \( I(t)^2 \) into the RMS formula: \[ I_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{T} \int_0^T (4 + 12 \sin(\omega t) + 9 \sin^2(\omega t)) \, dt} \] ### Step 4: Evaluate the integral We can break this integral into three parts: \[ \int_0^T (4 + 12 \sin(\omega t) + 9 \sin^2(\omega t)) \, dt = \int_0^T 4 \, dt + \int_0^T 12 \sin(\omega t) \, dt + \int_0^T 9 \sin^2(\omega t) \, dt \] 1. **First Integral**: \[ \int_0^T 4 \, dt = 4T \] 2. **Second Integral**: The integral of \( \sin(\omega t) \) over one complete cycle is zero: \[ \int_0^T 12 \sin(\omega t) \, dt = 0 \] 3. **Third Integral**: For \( \sin^2(\omega t) \), we use the identity: \[ \sin^2(\omega t) = \frac{1 - \cos(2\omega t)}{2} \] Thus, \[ \int_0^T 9 \sin^2(\omega t) \, dt = 9 \int_0^T \frac{1 - \cos(2\omega t)}{2} \, dt = \frac{9}{2} \left( T - 0 \right) = \frac{9T}{2} \] ### Step 5: Combine the results Now we can combine the results from the integrals: \[ \int_0^T (4 + 12 \sin(\omega t) + 9 \sin^2(\omega t)) \, dt = 4T + 0 + \frac{9T}{2} = 4T + \frac{9T}{2} = \frac{8T}{2} + \frac{9T}{2} = \frac{17T}{2} \] ### Step 6: Substitute back into the RMS formula Now substituting back into the RMS formula: \[ I_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{T} \cdot \frac{17T}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{17}{2}} \] ### Step 7: Final result Thus, the effective value of the resulting current in the circuit is: \[ I_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{\frac{17}{2}} \, \text{A} \]
