Question 107Electricity & Electronics - QMED
70% to passThe number of cycles per second occurring in AC voltage is known as what characteristic?
Aphase angle
Bhalf mode
Cfrequency
Dwave form
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) frequency. The number of cycles per second occurring in AC voltage is known as the frequency. Frequency is a measure of the number of complete cycles that occur in a given time period, typically one second. This is a fundamental characteristic of alternating current (AC) voltage and is measured in Hertz (Hz). The other options are incorrect because: A) Phase angle refers to the angular relationship between the voltage and current waveforms in an AC circuit. B) Half mode is not a recognized term in this context. D) Waveform describes the shape of the AC voltage or current over time, not the number of cycles per second.
