In the image, we can see two plots related to electric current $I(t)$ and electric charge $Q(t)$. The problem seems to involve calculating the amount of electric charge transferred over a certain period by integrating the current function.

1. Current Expression $I(t)$

The current function is given by: $I(t) = I_0 \cos(\omega t) + I_1 \sin(\omega_1 t) + I_{\text{DC}}$ with the following values for the constants:

• $I_0 = 3 \, \text{A}$
• $\omega = 2 \, \text{rad/s}$
• $I_1 = 2 \, \text{A}$
• $\omega_1 = 3 \, \text{rad/s}$
• $I_{\text{DC}} = 2 \, \text{A}$

2. Charge Calculation

The charge transferred is the integral of the current function over time: $Q(t) = \int I(t) \, dt$ Substituting $I(t)$ from above: $Q(t) = \int \left( I_0 \cos(\omega t) + I_1 \sin(\omega_1 t) + I_{\text{DC}} \right) dt$

This leads to: $Q(t) = \frac{I_0}{\omega} \sin(\omega t) - \frac{I_1}{\omega_1} \cos(\omega_1 t) + I_{\text{DC}} t + C$ where $C$ is the integration constant.

3. Definite Integral and Numerical Calculation

You may need to evaluate the definite integral over a given period (let’s assume from $t = 0$ to $t = 8 \, \text{s}$ as indicated on the graph).

Would you like a detailed breakdown of how to plug in the limits and simplify further?

Further Related Questions

1. What is the value of the electric charge transferred over the observation period $t = 0$ to $t = 8 \, \text{s}$?
2. How does the phase difference between $\omega$ and $\omega_1$ affect the shape of the current function $I(t)$?
3. What role does the DC component $I_{\text{DC}}$ play in the total charge transferred?
4. How would the integral change if there were no DC component in the current?
5. Can you express the relationship between current and charge graphically for this system?

Tip:

For periodic functions like $I(t)$, integrating over a full period of the cosine and sine components gives zero contribution from those terms. Only the DC component contributes over long time intervals.
