9. AC terminology The average value of the current over one cycle is zero. But, does not matter with the resistance, R P=i 2 R The average value of the instantaneous current, The square root of the mean

10. Example This equation states that an alternating current whose maximum value is 2.00 A delivers to a resistor the same power as a direct current that has a value of (0.707)(2.00 A) = 1.41 A. Thus, the average power delivered to a resistor that carries an alternating current is When we speak of measuring a 120-V alternating voltage from an electrical outlet, we are referring to an rms voltage of 120 V. A quick calculation using Equation 33.5 shows that such an alternating voltage has a maximum value of about 170 V.
