The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step-by-step, we will follow the given information and apply relevant formulas. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Total power rating (P) = 1000 watts - AC voltage equation: \( E = 200 \sin(310t + 60^\circ) \) - Amplitude of voltage (E₀) = 200 V - Phase difference (φ) = 60° ### Step 2: Calculate the RMS voltage (E_rms) The RMS (Root Mean Square) value of the voltage can be calculated using the formula: \[ E_{rms} = \frac{E_0}{\sqrt{2}} \] Substituting the value of E₀: \[ E_{rms} = \frac{200}{\sqrt{2}} = 100\sqrt{2} \text{ V} \] ### Step 3: Use the power formula The power in an AC circuit is given by: \[ P = E_{rms} \cdot I_{rms} \cdot \cos(\phi) \] Where: - \( P \) = Power (1000 W) - \( E_{rms} \) = RMS voltage (calculated above) - \( I_{rms} \) = RMS current (unknown) - \( \cos(\phi) \) = cosine of the phase difference (cos(60°) = 1/2) ### Step 4: Substitute the known values into the power formula Substituting the known values into the power equation: \[ 1000 = (100\sqrt{2}) \cdot I_{rms} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the equation Rearranging the equation to solve for \( I_{rms} \): \[ 1000 = 50\sqrt{2} \cdot I_{rms} \] \[ I_{rms} = \frac{1000}{50\sqrt{2}} = \frac{20}{\sqrt{2}} = 10\sqrt{2} \text{ A} \] ### Final Answer The RMS value of the circuit current is: \[ I_{rms} = 10\sqrt{2} \text{ A} \] ---
