Options:
  • A $0.025 \mathrm{~s}, 5 \mathrm{~A}$
  • B $0 \cdot 005 \mathrm{~s}, 5 \mathrm{~A}$
  • C $0 \cdot 005 \mathrm{~s}, 10 \mathrm{~A}$
  • D $0 \cdot 025 \mathrm{~s}, 10 \mathrm{~A}$

The correct answer is: $0 \cdot 005 \mathrm{~s}, 10 \mathrm{~A}$
(D)
$\mathrm{f}=50 \mathrm{~Hz}, \mathrm{~T}=\frac{1}{50} \mathrm{~s}=0.02 \mathrm{~s}$
Time taken to reach from zero to maximum value is
$\begin{array}{l}
t=\frac{T}{4}=\frac{0.02}{4}=0.005 \mathrm{~s} \\
I_{m s}=\frac{I_{0}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{14.14}{1.414}=10 \mathrm{~A}
\end{array}$
