Question regarding phase shift between two signals

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the phase shift between two sinusoidal voltages with a 68% time separation of their period. The amplitude is 15 Volts and the frequency is 2,771 Hz. Participants clarify that the phase shift can be calculated by multiplying 360 degrees by the time separation percentage. The resulting phase shift is determined to be 244.8 degrees. The conversation emphasizes the importance of correctly interpreting the period and applying the appropriate calculations to find the phase shift.

Homework Statement


Two sinusoidal voltages with amplitude 15Volts and frequency 2,771Hz are separated in time by 68% of a period. What is the phase shift in degrees between the two signals?

Homework Equations


y= Asin(omega)(x-h)

The Attempt at a Solution


I know my A is 15 and I'm pretty sure that my omega is 2771. I am confused, however, as to what I should put for my period. Should I put (2pi)*.68, but then what how could I get a numerical answer out of all of that?

(2pi)*.68
How many degrees is that? :smile:

That's 244.8 degrees if I multiply 360 by 2pi. So would this number be my phase shift?

The answer is what I get also, but you have a typo in your reply which I have fixed. :smile:

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
