Define : i) Maximum Value ii) RMS Value of ac supply

1 Answer

Answer :

i) Maximum Value :- The maximum or peak value attained by an alternating quantity during positive or negative half cycle, is called maximum value or peak value. 


ii) RMS Value of ac supply :- The effective or RMS value of an alternating current is that value of the steady current or DC current required to produce the same amount of heat as produced by the alternating current when flowing through the same resistance and for the same time.
