Default Frequency and Voltage

"Frequency just describes the cycles per second, or Hertz, that the
Voltage is. Here in the US its 60 Hertz. It is constant. The Pi in the
formula is also a constant. "


The argument of the cosine function is the angle between voltage and
current in an AC load. It varies depending on the inductance and/or
capacitance of a particular load. The symbol used for the angle is
normally theta, not Pi as the OP stated.
