What does sinusoidal shape mean?

: of, relating to, shaped like, or varying according to a sine curve or sine wave.

What does a sinusoidal wave look like?

A sine wave is an S-shaped waveform defined by the mathematical function y = sin x. It is depicted graphically as two semi-circular curves that alternate above and below a center line.

What are its properties of sinusoid and explain each?

All sinusoidal signals have the same general shape, but they are not identical. The three characteristics that separate one sinusoid from another are amplitude, frequency, and phase. Amplitude specifies the maximum distance between the horizontal axis and the vertical position of the waveform.

What has a sinusoidal waveform?

Sinusoidal waveforms are periodic waveforms whose shape can be plotted using the sine or cosine function from trigonometry. Electrical circuits supplied by sinusoidal waveforms whose polarity changes every cycle and are commonly known as “AC” voltages and current sources.
