The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating the peak value of voltage and the mean value of voltage during a positive half cycle in an AC circuit with a given root mean square (RMS) value of voltage \( V_{\text{rms}} = 50\sqrt{2} \) V, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Peak Voltage The relationship between the peak voltage \( V_0 \) and the RMS voltage \( V_{\text{rms}} \) for a sinusoidal waveform is given by the formula: \[ V_{\text{rms}} = \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}} \] To find the peak voltage \( V_0 \), we rearrange the formula: \[ V_0 = V_{\text{rms}} \times \sqrt{2} \] Substituting the given RMS value: \[ V_0 = (50\sqrt{2}) \times \sqrt{2} = 50 \times 2 = 100 \text{ V} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the Mean Value of Voltage during the Positive Half Cycle The mean value \( V_{\text{avg}} \) for a sinusoidal waveform over a positive half cycle can be calculated using the formula: \[ V_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{T/2} \int_0^{T/2} V(t) \, dt \] Where \( T \) is the period of the waveform. For a sinusoidal voltage \( V(t) = V_0 \sin(\omega t) \), we can substitute \( V_0 = 100 \) V: \[ V(t) = 100 \sin(\omega t) \] The period \( T \) of the waveform is given by \( T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} \), so \( T/2 = \frac{\pi}{\omega} \). Now, we can compute the mean value: \[ V_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{\frac{\pi}{\omega}} \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{\omega}} 100 \sin(\omega t) \, dt \] This simplifies to: \[ V_{\text{avg}} = \frac{100 \omega}{\pi} \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{\omega}} \sin(\omega t) \, dt \] ### Step 3: Evaluate the Integral The integral of \( \sin(\omega t) \) is: \[ \int \sin(\omega t) \, dt = -\frac{1}{\omega} \cos(\omega t) \] Evaluating the definite integral from \( 0 \) to \( \frac{\pi}{\omega} \): \[ \int_0^{\frac{\pi}{\omega}} \sin(\omega t) \, dt = -\frac{1}{\omega} \left[ \cos(\omega t) \right]_0^{\frac{\pi}{\omega}} = -\frac{1}{\omega} \left( \cos(\pi) - \cos(0) \right) = -\frac{1}{\omega} \left( -1 - 1 \right) = \frac{2}{\omega} \] ### Step 4: Substitute Back to Find \( V_{\text{avg}} \) Now substituting back into the mean value formula: \[ V_{\text{avg}} = \frac{100 \omega}{\pi} \cdot \frac{2}{\omega} = \frac{200}{\pi} \text{ V} \] ### Final Results - The peak voltage \( V_0 = 100 \text{ V} \) - The mean voltage during the positive half cycle \( V_{\text{avg}} = \frac{200}{\pi} \text{ V} \)
