A direct current of 2a and an alternating current


Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 343 People


What is the approximate peak value of an alternating current producing 4 times the heat produced per second by a steady current of 2A in a resistor

1) 2.8A
2) 4A
3) 5.6A
4) 8A

Answered by admin @



Irms= 4×i steady (1)
Also,irms =Imax/√2. (2)
From 1 &2
Imax/√2=4×i steady
So Imax =5.6 A
