Question

An AC generator supplies 44 rms volts to a 60-Ω resistor at 60 Hz. What is the maximum current in the resistor?

Answer 1

1.0639 A

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given rms voltage V = 44 volt

Resistance = 60 ohm

According to ohm's law
`V=iR`

So
`44=i* 60`

`i=(44)/(60)=0.7333A` this is the rms current but we have to find the maximum current

So maximum current
`i_m=√(2)i_(rms)=1.414* 0.7333=1.03693A`
