प्रश्न

When a voltage measuring device is connected to AC mains, the meter shows the steady input voltage of 220V. This means ______.

विकल्प

  • input voltage cannot be AC voltage, but a DC voltage.

  • maximum input voltage is 220 V.

  • the meter reads not v but <v2> and is calibrated to read `sqrt(< v^2 >)`.

  • the pointer of the meter is stuck by some mechanical defect.

उत्तर

When a voltage measuring device is connected to AC mains, the meter shows the steady input voltage of 220V. This means the meter reads not v but <v2> and is calibrated to read `underline(sqrt(< v^2 >))`.

Explanation:

The voltmeter in AC circuit reads value [< v2 >] and meter is calibrated to r.m.s. value < v2 > which is multiplied by `sqrt(2)` to get Vrms.
