AC Circuits

RMS

Objective:
	To show how to calculate rms voltages (and currents) for various periodic waveforms.
Steps:
	Observe some examples of waveforms you may encounter that have an average value of zero.
	Examine the power dissipated in a resistor supplied by an ideal squarewave.
	Find the rms of a triangular waveform.
	The rms value of a sine wave is very important in AC circuit analysis.
	Recall how to calculate rms and how it is useful in circuits supplied by a periodic waveform.
