(i) Formula used: P=V0I0 sinωt sin (ωt+ϕ)
Applied voltage in AC circuit containing,
V=V0 sin(ωt)
Hence current developed is
I=I0 sin(ωt±ϕ)
Instantaneous power output of the AC source
P=VI=(V0 sinωt)(I0 sin(ωt+ϕ)
= V0I0 sinωt sin sin(ωt+ϕ)
=V0I0 sinωt[ sinωt cosϕ+ cosωt sinϕ]
=V0I0[sin2ωt cosϕ+ sinωt cosωt sinϕ
=V0I0[(1− cos2ωt)2 cosϕ+12 sin2ωt sinϕ
=V0I02[ cosϕ− cos2ωt cosϕ+ sin2ωt sinϕ]
=V0I02[cosϕ−(cos2ωtcosϕ−sin2ωtsinϕ]
P=V0I02[ cosϕ− cos(2ωt+ϕ)]
Clearly, from the equation, Taken phase angle ,ϕ±ve
When cos< cos(2ωt+ϕ) ,the instantaneous power output of an AC source will be negative.
Final answer: Yes, the instantaneous power of an AC source can be negative.
(ii)
Formula used:
Pavg=V2rmsZ cos(ϕ) , Pav=V0√2I0√2 cosϕ
Apply average power in LCR circuit,
Pavg=V2rmsZ cos(ϕ)
Here, cos(ϕ)=RZ≥0
As R and Z are always non-negative, cos(ϕ) is always non-negative. Hence, average power cannot be negative.
Final Answer: No.
