Question 229

What is the peak-to-peak voltage of a sine wave with an RMS voltage of 120 volts?

  1. 84.8 volts
  2. 169.7 volts
  3. 240.0 volts
  4. 339.4 voltsCorrect answer

Explanation

Peak voltage is 120 × 1.414 = 169.7 volts, and peak-to-peak is twice that, 339.4 volts. The 169.7 distractor is the peak value, which counts only one half of the waveform swing.
