A constant current of magnitude sqrt(2) ...

A constant current of magnitude `sqrt(2)` A is flowing through a resistor when connected to a DC source. What is rms current flowing through the resistor ?

A

`sqrt(2)` A

B

`1 A`

C

0.5 A

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
(a) rms current is square root of average of square of current flowing through the circuit . Hence when constant current flows through a circuit then by definition rms current also becomes equal to that constant current in the circuit . Hence option (a) is correct.
