Give definition and formula of root mean square plot graph of current versus `omega t ` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Root mean square of any physical quantity is called root mean square. In short rms or it is also called effective quatity.
rms current is denoted by I or `I_(rms)` . The graphs of I versus of `omega t ` is given below.

The rms current is related to peak current `I_(m)` by `I = ( I_(m))/( sqrt(2)) = 0.707 I_(m)`
`I_(rms) = sqrt( lt I^(2) gt )`
`= sqrt((1)/(2) I_(m)^(2))`
`= ( I_(m))/( sqrt(2)) = 0.707 I_(m)`
Formula of rms for average power.
`P = bar(p) = ( 1)/(2) I_(m)^(2) R = I_(rms) ^(2) R [ :. (1)/(2) I_(m)^(2) = I_(rms)^(2)]`
and rms value for voltage,
`V = ( V_(m))/( sqrt(2)) = 0.707V_(m)`
Now `V_(m) = I_(m)R ` or `(V_(m))/( sqrt(2)) = ( I_(m))/( sqrt(2)) R ` or `V = IR `. These equations shows the relation between ac voltage and ac current.
For DC voltage relation is given by
`P = (V^(2))/( R ) = VI = I^(2) R `
