a) The peak voltage of an AC supply is 300 V. What is the rms voltage?
b) The rms value of current in an AC circuit is 10A. What is the peak current?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) Here `E_(0) = 600 V`
`therefore E_(rms) = (E_(0))/(sqrt(2)) = (600)/(sqrt(2)) = 424.3`
(b) Here `I_(rm) = 20 A`.
We know `I_(rms) = (I_(0))/(sqrt(2))`
`therefore I_(0) = sqrt(2)I_(rms)` or `I_(0) = sqrt(2) xx 20 = 1.414 xx 20 = 28.28 A`
