Form Factor is the ratio of__________?
Correct answer: C. r.m.s. value/average value
- A. average value/r.m.s. value
- B. average value/peak value
- C. r.m.s. value/average value
- D. r.m.s. value/peak value
Explanation
Form factor compares the heating-equivalent value with the average value, so it is defined as RMS value divided by average value. For a sine wave, this ratio is approximately 1.11.
