Question

If the maximum value of the current is 5√2 A, what will be the value of the average current?

(a) 10/π A

(b) 5/π A

(c) 15/π A

(d) 25/π A

This question was posed to me in an online quiz.

The query is from Average and RMS Values of Sinusoidal & Non-Sinusoidal Currents and Voltages in chapter Alternating Voltage and Current of Basic Electrical Engineering

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) 10/π A

To explain I would say: We know, the value of the average current = value of max current *√2 /π

Substituting the value of max current we get, rms current = 10/π A.
