In a circuit, the value of the alternating current is measured by hot wire ammeter as `10` ammeter. Its peak value will be

A

10A

B

20A

C

14.14A

D

7.07A

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`I_(rms) = 10 A `
`I_("peak) = I_(0) = sqrt(2) I_(rms) = 10 xx sqrt(2)`
`I_(0) = 14.14 A`
