Alternating Current Of Rms Value 10 Is Passed Through 12 П‰ Resistance

An alternating current of rms value 10 A is passed through a 12 Ω resistance. The maximum potential difference … (c) 169.68 V (d)…

Answers:

The correct option  (c) 169.68 V

 Explanation:

Irms = 10A

R = 12 Ω

∴ Vrms across resistor = Irms × R

∴ Vrms = 10 × 12 = 120 V

Maximum potential difference across resistor is Vm = Vrms × √2

 ∴ Vm = 120 √2 = 169.7 V
