The answer is peak current = 1.8A

The expression for the Root Mean Square value of current is given as

[tex]$I_{\text {rms }}=\frac{I_{0}}{\sqrt{2}} \text {. }$[/tex]

where, Io, is the peak current

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\text { Power } \quad P=150 \mathrm{~W} . \\&V_{\text {rms }}=120 \mathrm{~V} .\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}I_{\text {rous }} &=\frac{P}{V} \\&=\frac{150}{120}\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}& {I_{r m s} }=1.25 \mathrm{~A} \text { : }\\&I_{r m s}=\frac{I_{0}}{\sqrt{2}} \text {. }\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\text { or } \begin{aligned}I_{0} &=I_{r m s} \times \sqrt{2} . \\&=1.25 \times \sqrt{2} . \\I_{0} &=1.7678 \mathrm{~A} . \\1 . e \quad I_{0} &=1.8 \mathrm{~A}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, the peak current is [tex]$1.7678 \mathrm{~A}$[/tex]

[tex]$\text { or } 1.8 \mathrm{~A}$[/tex]

What is peak current?

  • The largest amount of current that an output is capable of providing for brief periods of time is known as the peak current.
  • When an electrical device or power source is turned on for the first time, a large initial current known as the peak current flows into the load, starting at zero and increasing until it reaches a peak value.
