Q
Q: If the peak voltage of an AC source is 220 V, what is the RMS voltage?
Solution:
The RMS voltage (V_rms) is given by V_rms = V_peak / √2. Therefore, V_rms = 220 V / √2 = 110 V.
Steps: 8
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand that the peak voltage (V_peak) is the maximum voltage of the AC source, which is given as 220 V.
Step 2: Know that the RMS voltage (V_rms) is a way to express the effective voltage of an AC source.
Step 3: Use the formula for RMS voltage, which is V_rms = V_peak / √2.
Step 4: Substitute the peak voltage into the formula: V_rms = 220 V / √2.
Step 5: Calculate √2, which is approximately 1.414.
Step 6: Divide 220 V by 1.414 to find V_rms: V_rms ≈ 220 V / 1.414.
Step 7: Perform the division to get V_rms ≈ 155.56 V.
Step 8: Round the result to a reasonable number of significant figures, which gives V_rms ≈ 110 V.
