How do you draw a 1 GHZ sine wave with a period of 1?
-- On your paper, draw an 'x' axis and a 'y' axis. -- Draw a single cycle of the 'sine' function. -- At the beginning of the cycle, label the point on the x-axis "zero". -- At the end of the cycle, label the point on the x-axis "1 nanosecond".
What is the difference between a crest and a trough?
If you are referring to a sine wave, a crest is the point on a wave with the maximum value or upward displacement within a cycle. A trough is the opposite of a crest, so it is the minimum or lowest point in a cycle. See Photo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Crest_trough.svg
What is a good mathematical model for representing transverse waves?
sine wave.
What are wave called when moving up and down?
A sine wave or sinusoid, forms an oscillation, or is oscillating in a regular up and down movement.
When was Surfing on Sine Waves created?
Surfing on Sine Waves was created on 1993-01-11.
A period in a sine wave?
the length of time it takes to complete one cycle
What is the graph of a sine function called?
A sine graph!
What is the frequency of a sine wave that has a cycle time of 1ms?
1kHz
How many cycles in 60 Hz?
A cycle is one complete revolution of the sine wave. Hertz is the frequency of the alternating current, how many complete cycles per second. 60 Hertz would have 60 cycles each second.
In telecommunication what is a pulse train with a 50 percent duty-cycle called?
Square
How does time relate to degrees in an AC sine wave?
One cycle of the sine wave is equal to 360 degrees. In US the frequency of power is typically 60 Hz and hence one cycle is 1/60 of a second. Therefore you can calculate the degrees at any instant of time. If at zero degrees the voltage amplitude is zero, then at 90 degrees,which is 1/4 cycle, wave is at peak voltage. At 180 degrees it is at 1/2 cycle and zero voltage and then at 270 degrees it is 3/4 of the cycle and a peak negative voltage. Finally at 360 degrees the cycle is complete and the voltage is again zero.
Why inverse sine function also known as arc sine?
Yes, it is called arcsin.
Why you use 0.707for rms values?
reciprocal of the square root of 2, converts from peak voltage to rms voltageAnother AnswerThis figure results when you work out how much work is done by one complete cycle of a.c. current. Since work is proportional to the square of a current, if you divide one complete cycle of a sine wave current into lots and lots of instantaneous values, square each of these values, find their average (mean) value, then find the square root of that value, you will have found the 'root-mean-square' of the current over a complete cycle. This value always works out to 0.707 x the peak or maximum value of the sine wave. For other waveforms, other r.m.s. values result.
What is an acrophase?
An acrophase is a time period in a cycle during which the cycle crests or peaks, especially the upper part of a sine wave fitted to a measurement of a circadian pattern.
What is the phase of a sine wave which is offset one sixth of a cycle with respect to time zero?
1/6th of a cycle is 60 degrees or (pi/3) radians.
What is period as it pertains to the graph of sine and cosine?
Period is how long it takes for the sine and cosine functions to restart repeating themselves. Both have a period of 2pi (360 degrees).
Sine wave means what?
The sine wave is also called a sinusoid is a mathematical curve that describes the smooth repetitive oscillation.
