The instantaneous values of alternating current and voltage in a circuit are given as $I = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sin(100\pi t)$ and $E = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \sin(100\pi t + \frac{\pi}{3})$. The average power in watts consumed in the circuit is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{8}$
