Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around converting a complex voltage expression, V = 10< 90 degrees + 66 - j(10 V), at an angular frequency of 10k rads/s. Participants explore different forms of representation for the voltage and clarify the components involved in the conversion process.

Discussion Character

  • Technical explanation
  • Mathematical reasoning

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses confusion about how to convert the given voltage expression and attempts to break it down into its components.
  • Another participant asks for clarification on what the conversion is intended for, suggesting different forms such as V(t) = V(0)sin(wt + p) or V(t) = V(0)cos(wt + p).
  • Further contributions reiterate the form V(a)cos(ωt + φ) and prompt the original poster to identify the angle represented by the expression involving j + 66 - j(10).
  • A participant acknowledges an algebraic error in their initial calculations and corrects it, concluding that the expression simplifies to 66, leading to a final representation of 66cos(10^4t).

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is a mix of agreement and clarification among participants regarding the conversion process, but the initial confusion and the algebraic error indicate that the discussion is not fully resolved as participants explore different interpretations and approaches.

Contextual Notes

The discussion highlights potential limitations in the original problem statement and the assumptions made during the conversion process, particularly regarding the interpretation of angular frequency and the components of the voltage expression.

Question: Convert V = 10< 90 degrees + 66 - j(10 V) at angular frequency = 10k rads/s.

I am stuck here 10(cos(90)+ j(sin(90)) + 66 - j(10)

which would then be: 0 + j + 66 - j(10)

Convert to what?

Question: Convert V

Do you have the original problem wording?
Convert to what?
1) V(t)=V(0)sin(wt+p) where t=time and V(0), w, p are real?
2) V(t)=V(0)Cos(wt+p) where t=time and V(0), w, p are real?
3) Other?

V(a)cos(\omegat+\phi)
V(t)=V(0)cos($\omega$t+$\phi$)
You are very close,
what is the angle represented by j + 66 - j(10)? That is $\phi$.

Can you find $\omega$ from the given frequency?
Can you find V(0); it is the magnitude of j + 66 - j(10)?

actually I am already given \omega, that is what angular frequency is. Although just re reading my initial post, I can spot my problem. I made an algebraic error:

10(cos(90)+ j(sin(90)) + 66 - j(10)

corrected: 10(0) + j(10) + 66 - j(10)

which just simplifies to 66, while the imaginary cancel out

Final answer: 66cos(10^4t)​

Thanks for your help!
