No fault found with why average is not zero. This is the part I was responding to: I guess you meant instantaneous VOLTAGE rather than power? Otherwise you would be finding the RMS value of power. 73

Now, how about the next example. RMS of a sine wave using only 4 samples but this time use 170 volts peak value and 144 ohms (100 watt light bulb). I have rounded the following to the nearest tenth t

As an additional note it is interesting that 120 volts DC on that same light bulb gives the same 100 watt power as the average AC power. The statement that you often see, "RMS has the same heating ef

When adding PEP to the mix it is vital that average power be understood properly. Best to put RMS power out of mind as it is good for nothing but confusion. Reading the FCC definition of PEP it goes

Agreed The question is indeterminate unless the waveform is stated. Not unless the waveform is stated. For example, the RMS potential of a square-wave is not .707 of E-pk. PEP measurement as used for

My sis-in-law's electric water heater uses 240V-rms at c. 30A-rms. If there is no RMS power, why does the water get hot? Richard L. Measures, AG6K, 805.386.3734. www.somis.org _______________________

AsI recall, for a sinewave, the average potential is 0.636 of E-pk and the root-mean-square value is 0.707 of e-pk. AsI recall, for a sinewave, the average current is 0.636 of I-pk and the root-mean-

Rich, I think you are wrong. Here's my reasoning - I may well be wrong, as maths never was a good point of mine. You need to understand calculus to properly work out the RMS of an arbitrary waveform,
