    Im studying electrical engineering and i never really learned what rms actually means. I was always wondering in the back of my head how are we supposed to measure linear circuit components when we have an ac source. This is so satisfying, this is like a eureka moment! Thank you!

  • @clintonandrews1538

    Good show! It might help to mention that the reason for taking the squares of the values is to eliminate the negative numbers from the negative half of the cycle, otherwise they would cancel themselves out in the mean or average. 20+10+0+(-10)+(-20)=0 /5 =0

    • @Cedillallidec
      @Cedillallidec 6 років тому +31

      Actually the reason for squaring the values is not to eliminate negative numbers. It is done because of the equation for power in electric circuits. Vrms is defined as the equivalent DC voltage that dissipates power at the same rate as the AC peak-peak voltage on the same circuit. Remembering our basic formulae for electric circuits: P = V * I and I = V/R, we can rearrange for power to be determined as P = V^2 / R. So what you are looking for is: "what is the average squared voltage through my circuit in AC, and what DC voltage would produce the same average squared voltage." (Since R will be the same by definition for both DC and AC power dissipation.) In this example, the average squared voltage for 20V peak-peak is calculated to be 200 V^2 . So a DC voltage of 14.14V would produce the same average squared voltage of 200V^2 and therefore dissipate exactly the same power as 20 V p-p AC.
      Vrms is useful for calculating power consumption of AC appliances, which is why we use it.
      The squaring and subsequent square root has nothing to do with eliminating negative numbers from the calculation. It is a necessary step in defining the equivalent DC voltage the dissipates power at the rate of P = V^2/R. If we lived in a different universe where power dissipated with voltage to the third power , then we would calculate the "cubic root mean cube Voltage" as a handy number to determine equivalent power dissipation.

    @majorpygge-phartt2643 7 місяців тому

    Hi, from England, UK. The sine waveform is normally used for basic ac calculations because that's what is supplied from the mains. And RMS voltage is normally used for stating ac voltages with a sine waveform because way back in past someone carried out an experiment with an electric fire element and they found that they got the same heat, and therefore the same power dissipation with the same applied RMS ac voltage as the dc supply, i.e., A 1Kw 240 volt fire element will dissipate 1Kw whether it's supplied with 240 volts ac RMS sine wave or 240 volts dc. And the term for calculating the values of different ac waveforms is the crest factor, which for a sine wave is 1.414, whereas other waveform have other figures, and just to complicate things a bit more, some ac waveforms have TWO different crest factors, that's something I learnt from working on the old type analogue TV sets with the old cathode ray tube, where some of the waveforms produced by the various circuits will give a different voltage when rectified to dc for each polarity, i.e., if you rectify it to positive it will give a different dc voltage than what you would get if you rectify it to negative, and this was often used by TV manufacturers to give different voltages of either polarity. And ac calculations get much more complex when you use reactive loads like those which are inductive or capacitive, then there's all manner of complex advanced maths involved, so you need to be good with maths!
