A 120-V rms voltage at 60.0 Hz is applied across an inductor,capacitor and a 100-Ω resistor in series.If the maximum value of the current in this circuit is 1.60 A,what is the rms value of the current in this circuit?
A)1.13 A
B)2.26 A
C)1.82 A
D)1.60 A
E)2.66 A

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rms value of the current is equal to the maximum value of the current divided by the square root of 2. Therefore, the rms value of the current is 1.60 A / sqrt(2) = 1.13 A.
