Answer:
The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V
Explanation:
Capacitor: A capacitor is an electrical device that has the ability to store electrical charges in an electrical circuit. It is expressed in Farad (F)
Resistor: A resistor is an electrical device that oppose the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is expressed in ohms (Ω)
RMS Voltage : RMS voltage value of an alternating voltage is defined as that value of steady voltage which would dissipate heat at the same rate in a given resistance
Since the it is a series circuit, the total voltage is divided across the resistance and the capacitor.
Vt = V₁ + V₂...........................Equation 1
Where Vt = total Rms voltage = 120 V , V₁ = Rms voltage across the Capacitor = 92 V, V₂ = Rms voltage across the resistor.
Making V₂ the subject of the equation in equation 1 above,
V₂ = Vt - V₁ = 120 - 92
V₂ = 28 V.
The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V
