What is the mathematical formula used to calculate a the voltage of a waveform?

If the wave is sinusoidal, the equation to determine voltage as a function of phase angle, is: V = V(p)sin(theta) where "V(p)" is peak voltage and "theta" is the phase angle. In the time domain, the equation for voltage is V = V(p)sin(wt) where 'w' was used for the Greek letter omega, which stands for frequency in radians per second and t is elapsed time from zero volts in seconds.


What is a 13.2 Voltage power supply used for?

It can be used for anything with a nominal 12 v requirement. In cars everything runs on a nominal voltage of 12 v but is designed to run on 13.8 v which is the voltage when the car is running.


What does the letter E stand for in the Ohm's law formula?

Correct Answer= In the Ohm's law formula, the letter "E" stands for voltage(volt)AnswerThe symbol, E, together with the symbols V and U, is used to represent potential difference. Specifically, E is used to represent electromotive force or an open-circuit voltage, whereas V and U are used to represent potential differences in general.
