Question
An alternating voltage whose peak value is 80 volts is connected across a 60 ohms. What is the value of rms current?
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
First, calculate the RMS voltage (Vrms) from the peak voltage (Vpeak): Vrms = Vpeak / √2 = 80 V / 1.414 ≈ 56.57 V. Then, use Ohm's Law to find the RMS current (Irms): Irms = Vrms / R = 56.57 V / 60 Ω ≈ 0.9428 A.
Hint
Remember the relationship between peak voltage and RMS voltage in an AC circuit.
