Where Eq (1) is valid in the general case, Eq (2) is valid 
for a subset when i = I * cos(wt)

When i = I * cos(wt)

then the magnitude of di/dt = |I * w * sin(wt)|
                            = w * I
                            = 2 * pi * f * I

Outside of sinusoidal waveforms, I don't believe the second
equation is valid.
