\( V_0 \)
\( \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}} \)
\( \frac{V_0}{2} \)
\( \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{3}} \)
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is
B
Solution and Explanation
Step 1: RMS value calculation.
The r.m.s. (root mean square) value of a periodic signal is given by: \[ V_{\text{rms}} = \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}} \] where \( V_0 \) is the peak value of the voltage.
Thus, the correct answer is (2).
