Electric Potential at a Point in Space Due to a Point Charge Q

The peak valu...

Question

The peak value of alternating current in a circuit is $\sqrt{2}$ A. Find the root-mean-square(rms) value of current.

Open in App

Solution

Peak value of current $I_{o} = \sqrt{2}$ A
Root-mean square value of current $I_{r m s} = \frac{I_{o}}{\sqrt{2}}$
$⟹ I_{r m s} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = 1$ A
