What is the value of the rms current in the resistor? What is the peak current in the resistor?

Question

An ac voltage, whose peak value is 180 V, is across a 365 resistor. What is the value of the rms current in the resistor? What is the peak current in the resistor?

Answer 1

You an find the peak current using ohm's law.

The rms current of an A/C current should be the square root of (1/2 times the peak current squared), or about 70 percent of the peak current.

Answer 2

The RMS values are the comparable as DC values, e.g. 250V. RMS = 250V. DC., 10A. RMS = 10A. DC. this sort, AC and DC values could nicely be correlated. height fee in AC is in simple terms reached periodically, with 0 fee between peaks, so the "general" is the RMS fee.
