Question
A resistor and capacitor are connected in series across an AC generator. The emf of the generator is given by 
v(t) = V0 cos(pi)t,
 where 
V0 = 136 V,
 
w= 128(pi) rad/s,
 
R = 440 Ω,
 and 
C = 4.4 µF.
(a)
What is the impedance of the circuit (in Ω)?
 Ω
(b)
What is the amplitude of the current through the resistor (in A)?
 A
(c)
Write an expression for the current through the resistor. (Use the following as necessary: t. Assume 
i(t)
 is in amps and t is in seconds. Do not include units in your answer.)
i(t) = 
 
 
 
(d)
