The period of an ac wave is?

period is the time duration of one cycle of the waveform, and is measured in seconds/cycle. AC power at 50 Hz will have a period of 1/50 = 0.02 seconds/cycle. A 60 Hz power system has a period of 1/60 = 0.016667 seconds/cycle


In a 50-hz grenerator what fraction of a second does it take to complete one cycle?

time(seconds)=1/frequency(Hz) time=1/50 =0.02 seconds for 1 cycle


Is china on 50 cycle the same as peru?

China is 220 volts at 50 Hz.


What is the pulse width duration of a 500-hz digital signal if the duty cycle is 20 percent?

What is dsadvantages of having 50 Hz supply over 60 Hz supply?

There is no inherent disadvantage of 50 Hz compared with 60 Hz, bearing in mind that systems that run at 50 Hz are designed to run at 50 Hz.


What is the Formula for hertz?

You find formulas down in the related links for conversion and calculation: Time period, cycle duration, periodic time to frequency in Hz.


What will happen to a motor which is designed for 50 or 60 cycle operation if it connected to 60 Hz?

60 cycles = 60 hertz


If a motor designed for 50 or 60 cycle operation is connected to 60 hz current the motor will what?

The motor, being designed to run on either a 50 or a 60 cycle (a.k.a. hertz) system , will turn faster.


Difference between FREQUENCY 50 Hz 60 Hz?

10 Hz 10 Hz


An alternating current has a frequency of 50 Hz how many times does it change its direction in one second?

Hertz is just another name for cycles per second. In an alternating current situation a sign wave is positive for half the cycle and negative for the other half. So in a simple example of 2 HZ if the voltage starts at zero and goes positive for a half cycle (1/4 sec), it then goes negative for a half cycle (Change in polarity #1), then positive at 1/2 second (Change in polarity #2). Then positive until 3/4 seconds where it again crosses zero (3rd change) and finally at 1 sec to return to zero (4th change). Hence 50 HZ changes polarity 100 times per second.


What is the advantage of using 60Hertz current over 50Hertz current?

50 Hz is not available in the US. This is the frequency used in alot of European areas tho and it is the rate of Alternating Current as measured on an occiliscope in one cycle from 0 to + back to 0 to - and back to 0 (one Hz).... Short answer to your question is 60 Hz is more efficient (cheaper to operate) than 50 Hz.


What is the Hz?

The Hz, or Hertz, is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI). It measures the number of cycles or vibrations per second in a wave or signal. For example, if a wave has a frequency of 50 Hz, it means there are 50 cycles or vibrations occurring every second.
