The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find two things: the time taken for the alternating current to reach its maximum value from zero and the peak value of the current given the RMS value. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Given Values:** - Frequency (f) = 50 Hz - RMS value of current (I_RMS) = 10 A 2. **Calculate the Time Period (T):** - The time period (T) of an AC signal is given by the formula: \[ T = \frac{1}{f} \] - Substituting the given frequency: \[ T = \frac{1}{50 \, \text{Hz}} = 0.02 \, \text{s} \] 3. **Determine the Time to Reach Maximum Value:** - The time taken to reach the maximum value (peak value) from zero is \( \frac{T}{4} \) because the AC waveform is sinusoidal and takes a quarter of the time period to go from zero to the peak. - Thus: \[ \text{Time to reach peak} = \frac{T}{4} = \frac{0.02 \, \text{s}}{4} = 0.005 \, \text{s} = 5 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{s} \] 4. **Calculate the Peak Value (I_peak):** - The relationship between the RMS value and the peak value is given by: \[ I_{\text{peak}} = I_{\text{RMS}} \times \sqrt{2} \] - Substituting the given RMS value: \[ I_{\text{peak}} = 10 \, \text{A} \times \sqrt{2} \approx 10 \, \text{A} \times 1.414 \approx 14.14 \, \text{A} \] ### Final Results: - **Time taken to reach maximum value:** \( 5 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{s} \) - **Peak value of current:** \( 14.14 \, \text{A} \)
