Question

The r.m.s. value of potential difference \( V \) shown in the figure is: 

• A. \( V_0 \)
• B. \( \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{2}} \)
• C. \( \frac{V_0}{2} \)
• D. \( \frac{V_0}{\sqrt{3}} \)

Hint:

For sinusoidal waveforms, the r.m.s. value is the peak value divided by \( \sqrt{2} \).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

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).
