Quelle est la tension crête à crête d'une onde sinusoïdale qui a une valeur efficace ("RMS") de 120 volts?

  1. A339,5 volts
  2. B84,8 volts
  3. C169,7 volts
  4. D204,8 volts

Correct answer: A — 339,5 volts. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

To find the peak-to-peak voltage, you first multiply the RMS value of 120 volts by 1.414 to get the peak voltage, which is about 169.7 volts. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
