The correct answer is: 25

The equation of current in terms of the peak value of current in sinusoidal form is, i=i0sinωt+ϕ, the given i-t equation can be written as, i=5×2×225×2×2sinωt+65×2×2cosωti=5×2×2210sinωt+310cosωt ⇒i0=5×2×2 A, the relation between root mean square and peak current is, irms=i02=25 A
