236 VECTOR GEOMETRY
Now try the following exercise.
Exercise 96 Further problems on the
combination of periodic functions
- Plot the graph of y=2 sinA from A= 0 ◦
to A= 360 ◦. On the same axis plot
y=4 cosA. By adding ordinates at inter-
vals ploty=2 sinA+4 cosAand obtain a
sinusoidal expression for the waveform.
[4.5 sin (A+ 63 ◦ 26 ′)] - Two alternating voltages are given byv 1 = 10
sinωtvolts andv 2 =14 sin (ωt+π/3) volts.
By plottingv 1 andv 2 on the same axes over
one cycle obtain a sinusoidal expression for
(a)v 1 +v (^2) [(b)v 1 −v 2.
(a) 20 .9 sin (ωt+ 0 .63) volts
(b) 12.5 sin (ωt− 1 .36) volts
