### What is Meant by Root Mean Square?

In mathematics, the root mean square is also known as the quadratic mean. It is represented by RMS or rms. The root mean square is defined as the square root of the mean square. We can also say that it is a generalised mean with the exponent value as 2. The root mean square value is given as:

For the set of numbers, x1, x2, x3, …xn, the root mean square (RMS) is

$x_{RMS}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}(x_{1}^{2}+x_{2}^{2}+x_{3}^{2}+…+x_{n}^{2})}$

For example, the set of values are 4, 2, 6, 8, then the root mean square is calculated as:

Here, n= 4

Now, substitute the values in the formula, we get

$x_{RMS}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}(4^{2}+2^{2}+6^{2}+8^{2})}$

$x_{RMS}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}(16+4+36+64)}$

$x_{RMS}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}(120)}$

$x_{RMS}=\sqrt{30}$

$x_{RMS}=5.477$
