5.36 The current flowing through a 10 kΩ resistor is given by a triangular waveform (#4 in Table 5-4) with A = 4 mA and T = 0.2 s. (a) Determine the exact value of the average power consumed by the resistor. (b) Using a truncated Fourier-series representation of the waveform with only the first four terms, obtain an approximate value for the average power consumed by the resistor. (c) What is the percentage of error in the value given in (b)?
