Question 353Electricity & Electronics - QMED
70% to passIn a 60 Hz AC system, what is the duration in seconds for one complete cycle?
A60 seconds
B6 seconds
C1 second
D0.016 of a second
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 0.016 of a second. In a 60 Hz AC system, the duration of one complete cycle is the inverse of the frequency, which is 1/60 seconds or 0.016 seconds. This is because the frequency represents the number of complete cycles that occur in one second. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) 60 seconds would represent the time for 60 complete cycles, not one. B) 6 seconds would be the time for 6 complete cycles, not one. C) 1 second would be the time for 60 complete cycles, not one.
