Answer:

(a) 100 V

(b) 60 Hz

(c) 95.106 V

(d) 25 V, 75 V

(e) 23.776 V, 71.329 V

(f) see attached

Explanation:

The peak value of the sine function is 1, so the peak value of U is ...

100·1 = 100 V.

__

The argument of the sine function is 2πft, so f = 120πt/(2πt) = 60 Hz.

__

When t=0.020, the voltage is ...

U = 100sin(120π·0.020) = 100 sin(2.4π) ≈ 95.106 V

__

The resistors are in the ratio of 1 : 3, so divide the source voltage in that ratio.

The peak voltage across the 5Ω resistor is 1/4 of 100 V, or 25 V.

The peak voltage across the 15Ω resistor is 3/4 of 100 V, or 75 V.

__

The same fractions as in (d) apply to the instantaneous voltage.

The voltage on the 5Ω resistor is 1/4·95.106 V ≈ 23.776 V

The voltage on the 15Ω resistor is 3/4·95.106 V ≈ 71.329 V
