The peak-to-peak value of a sine wave is equal to ____.
A) twice the rms value
B) 0.707 times the rms value
C) twice the peak value
D) 1.14 times the average value

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The peak-to-peak value is the difference between the maximum and minimum amplitudes of the sine wave. Since the peak value of a sine wave is equal to its RMS value multiplied by 0.707, the peak-to-peak value is twice the peak value, which is equal to twice the RMS value multiplied by 0.707. Therefore, the correct option is (C) twice the peak value.
