A 5.89 µF capacitor is connected to an emf given by $v_0 \sin(\omega t)$ where $V_0 = 120$ Volts and $\omega$ is $120 \pi$ rad/s. What is the magnitude of the current in Amperes through the capacitor at t = 6.98 seconds?

'9_ When a 60-volt; 60-hertz supply is connected to a capacitor; the current reads 0.6 ampere. What is the capacitance of the capacitor? Answer:'
Madhur L.
A 1.26-mF capacitor is connected to a North American electrical outlet (ΔVrms = 120 V, f = 60.0 Hz). Assuming the energy stored in the capacitor is zero at t = 0, determine the magnitude of the current in the wires at t = 1/192 s.
