ELECTRODYNAMICS

Question 1

Define the term rms for an alternating voltage.

Answer 1

The rms potential difference is the AC potential difference which dissipates/produces
the same amount of energy as an equivalent DC potential difference.

Question 2

Define the term rms current

Answer 2

The rms current is the alternating current which dissipates/produces the same amount
of energy as an equivalent direct current (DC)
