Assignment 2

 Check carefully the submission date and the instructions given with the assignment. Late assignments will not be accepted. Ensure that you give yourself enough time to complete the assignment by the due date. You must take responsibility for managing your own time effectively. If you are unable to hand in your assignment on time and have valid reasons such as illness, you may apply (in writing) for an extension. Take great care that if you use other peoples work or ideas in your assignment, you properly reference them in your text and any bibliography. If you are caught plagiarizing, you could have your grade reduced to Referral. Assessment Specification

Lecturers Sign / Remark: ______________________________________________

The following voltages are taken over one complete cycle of a complex waveform:
