Answer :
The RMS value of the current carried cord is 0.347
What is RMS value and voltage ?
A sinusoidal source of electromotive force is described by its root-mean-square (rms) voltage (Vrms). It is the voltage squared time average's square root. Vrms is equal to V0/2, or, in other words, 0.707V0.
RMS, or the Root-Mean-Square of current instantaneous values Direct current that passes through a resistance to produce alternating current yields the RMS value of the current. AC has an RMS value that is higher than the average. The area covered during a half-cycle can be used to calculate the sine current wave's RMS value.
To determine the effective current through the power code
[tex]I_{n}[/tex] = p/[tex]v_{n}[/tex]
Where [tex]I_{n}[/tex] = effective current
P = power 40 w
[tex]v_{n}[/tex]= effective voltage ( 115v)
[tex]I_{n}[/tex] =40/115
[tex]I_{n}[/tex] =0.347 A
Therefore the RMS value is 0.347
