question 145

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-A coil of wire rotating in a magnetic field induces a voltage given by $e = 20 \sin \left( \frac { \pi t } { 4 } - \frac { \pi } { 2 } \right)$ , where $t$ is time in seconds. Find the smallest positive time to produce a voltage of $10 \sqrt { 2 }$ . Round values to the nearest hundredth.

• A) \(2.8 \mathrm { sec }\)
