The formula to calculate the phase difference is:
\[ \text{PD} = A \cdot \sin(\omega \cdot \Phi) \]
Where:
A phase difference is defined as the angle at which a waveform has shifted from some reference point along the x-axis. This measurement helps determine how much one waveform is leading or lagging behind another.
Example:
Step 1: Calculate the phase difference:
\[ \text{PD} = 5 \cdot \sin(2 \cdot 1) \approx 5 \cdot \sin(2) \approx 5 \cdot 0.9093 \approx 4.55 \]
