AC Electrical Circuit Analysis - MVCC

Note the smooth variation that starts at zero, rises to a positive peak one quarter way through, falls back to zero when halfway through, continues to a negative peak three quarters through, and then rises again to where it started. This process then repeats. Each repeat is referred to as a cycle. In Figure 1.1, one complete cycle is shown. 11
