Let $f = 50\, Hz$ and $C = 100\, \mu F$ in an $AC$ circuit containing a capacitor only. If the peak value of the current in the circuit is $1.57\, A$,the expression for the instantaneous voltage across the capacitor will be (assuming current is $I = I_m \sin(\omega t)$):

  • A
    $E = 50\, \sin(100\, \pi t - \pi / 2)$
  • B
    $E = 100\, \sin(50\, \pi t)$
  • C
    $E = 50\, \sin(100\, \pi t)$
  • D
    $E = 50\, \sin(100\, \pi t + \pi / 2)$
