The following phasor diagram shows an arbitrary phasor during its first rotation. Assuming that it begins with an angle of 0° , if the phasor took 0.027 s to get to its current position, what is the angular frequency of the phasor?

A phasor of length 4 begins at 0° . If it is rotating at ω = 250 s⁻¹ , what is the value of the phasor after 0.007 s?

The emf phasor in FIGURE EX32.1 is shown at t = 2.0 ms. What is the angular frequency ω? Assume this is the first rotation.

The emf phasor in FIGURE EX32.1 is shown at t = 2.0 ms. What is the peak value of the emf?

Commercial electricity is generated and transmitted as three-phase electricity. Instead of a single emf ε = ε₀ cos ωt, three separate wires carry currents for the emfs ε₁ = ε₀ cos ωt, ε₂ = ε₀ cos(ωt+120°), and ε₃ = ε₀ cos(ωt−120°). This is why the long-distance transmission lines you see in the countryside have three parallel wires, as do many distribution lines within a city. Show that the potential difference between any two of the phases has the rms value 3–√ ε_rms, where ε_rms is the familiar single-phase rms voltage. Evaluate this potential difference for ε_rms = 120 V. Some high-power home appliances, especially electric clothes dryers and hot-water heaters, are designed to operate between two of the phases rather than between one phase and neutral. Heavy-duty industrial motors are designed to operate from all three phases, but full three-phase power is rare in residential or office use.

Which of the following best describes the relationship between three voltages $V_1$, $V_2$, and $V_3$ in a phasor diagram if $V_1$ and $V_2$ are out of phase and their sum gives $V_3$?
