Answer:

The time required for the AC waveform having a frequency of 50 Hz to complete one cycle is 0.02 second

Step-by-step explanation:

The given frequency of the AC waveform, f = 50 Hz = 50 /second

The time for a wave to complete one cycle is known as the period of the wave, 'T'

The relationship between the period of a wave, 'T', and the frequency of the wave, 'f', is presented as follows;

T = 1/f

Therefore, the time required for the AC waveform having a frequency, 'f' of 50 Hz to complete one cycle (the period of the wave), T = 1/f

∴ T = 1/(50 Hz) = 1/(50/second) = 0.02 second

T = 0.02 second

The time for the AC waveform to complete one cycle, T = 0.02 second.
