42.
A periodic voltage has following value for equal time intervals changing suddenly from one value to next... 0, 5, 10, 20, 50, 60, 50, 20, 10, 5, 0, -5, -10 etc. Then rms value of the waveform is
31 V
32 V
insufficient data
none of these
Answer: Option
Explanation:

RMS value = 965 = 31.064 Volt.

If you take positive and negative half cycle both then devide by 20.

Why vm/√2 is not taken here? Please explain.

Why? (Vrms =0.5).

Manjusihag said:   9 years ago
Vmax = 60 then Vrms = 0.5,

Multiply by 60 = 30,

The answer due to +ve half cycle.

Balwinder S said:   9 years ago
I think it should be simply,

Vmax / 1.414. Vmax = 60v.

@Rathi.

Because there are 10 positive cycles on the numerator.

Rathi said:   9 years ago
Why there is 10 on the denominator?

Ravi said:   10 years ago
Because rms value calculated for +ve cycle.

Why last three value not taken in count?
