A direct current of 2 A and an alternating current having a maximum value of 2 A flow through two identical resistances. The ratio of heat produced in the two resistances will be

A

`1:1`

B

`1:2`

C

`2:1`

D

`4:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`H_(DC)=i^(2)Rt=2^(2)Rt=4Rt`
`H_(AC)=((i_(0))/sqrt(2))^(2)Rt=((2)/(sqrt(2)))^(2)Rt=2Rt`
