Chapter 24 Alternating Current Circuits Q.1CQ
How can the rms voltage of an ac circuit be nonzero when its average value is zero? Explain.
Solution:
For a complete cycle the voltage oscillates between positive and negative symmetrically. Therefore the sum of symmetric positive and negative values will become zero and therefore the average value of ac - voltage is zero for a complete cycle.
But when we calculate the rms value of ac - voltage we first calculate the square of the voltage Therefore whether the voltage is positive or negative its square is a positive Therefore the rms voltage of ac is always non zero.
