Erms = 16v.
R = 15Kohms = 15*10^3 = 15000.
We have Erms = Irms*R.
Irms = Erms/R.
= 16/15000.
= 0.001066A.

We have Irms = Imax/1.414.

Imax = Irms*1.414.
= 0.001066*1.414.
= 0.0015A = 1.5mA.

Emax = 16 V/0.707.

Emax = 22.63 V or 22V.

I = V/R.

I = 22 V/ 15 kΩ.

to convert 15 kΩ to ohms.

15 kΩ * 1000 Ω/1 kΩ.

I= 22 V/ 15000 Ω.

I= 1.46 mA or 1.5 mA.

WKT Vrms = 0.707Vmax => Here Vrms = 16v.

16 = 0.707 * Vmax = >
Vmax = 16/0.707=> 22.6308v.

So, Imax=Vmax / R=> 22.6308/15K = 1.508mA.

V = 16.
R = 15000.
Irms = 16/15000.
= 0.001067A,
= 1.067mA.
Im = Irms/0.707.
= 1.067/0.707.
= 1.5mA.

Sample,

Imax = Irms*1.414
Irms = V/R
V=16, R=15 k=15000.

Irms = 16/15000 = 0.001067A = 1.067mA.
Imax = 1.067*1.414 = 1.5mA.

Here giving,

V = 15 v.
And R = 15000.

Then we know that Im = 2^1/2 Irms.

And Irms = V/R and solving it find Im = 1.5 mA.

It as simple as.....
V=16
R=15k = 15000
Irms= V/R = 16/15000 = 0.001067A = 1.067mA
Imax=1.414*1.067mA = 1.51mA

V = 15V.
R = 15000.

Irms = V/R = 16/15000.
= 0.001067A.

Imax = 1.414x1.067mA.
= 1.51mA.

Can someone please explain the concept of phase voltage, phase current and line voltage and current.

Sunil kumar said:   1 decade ago
rms voltage = 16 volts.

max voltage = 16*1.414= 22.62 volts.

I=V/R =22.62/15000 = 1.5 mA.
