Practice mode Physics

An alternating current is given by I = I₀ sin πt. Which equation describes a current with twice the frequency and twice the amplitude?

Correct answer A. I = 2I₀ sin(2πt)

Explanation

Doubling the amplitude gives 2I₀, and doubling the angular frequency changes π to 2π, so the new current is I = 2I₀ sin 2πt.
