An \(AC\) source rated \(220\, V , 50\, Hz\) is connected to a resistor. The time taken by the current to change from its maximum to the rms value is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(2.5\, ms\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(i = i _{0} \cos (\omega t )\)
\(i = i _{0}\) at \(t =0\)
\(i =\frac{ i _{0}}{\sqrt{2}}\) at \(\omega t =\frac{\pi}{4}\)
\(t =\frac{\pi}{4 \omega}=\frac{\pi}{4(2 \pi f )}=\frac{1}{8 f }\)
\(t =\frac{1}{400}=2.5 ms\)
