Unfortunately that varies with the model of VOM, consult the users manual.
define the maximum value of an ac wave form
V = I*R, so take 100 volts and divide it by the value of the resistance to get the current. Current is measured in amperes.
Inductance is not negative. It is measured in henrys, and that is a positive value. Inductive reactance, however, is measured in ohms, and is commonly shown as negative to indicate that the current lags the voltage.
The resulting maximum current is limited by the resistance of the inductor. As the current increases from zero to that maximum value, its expanding magnetic field induces a voltage into the inductor which opposes the rise in that current. So, instead of reaching its maximum value instantaneously, it takes some time -determined by the equation:time to maximum current = 5 L / R (seconds)where L = inductance of inductor in henrys, and R = resistance of inductor in ohms.
0.00 Ohms measured between parts that normally carry current.
Analog meters are better when the measured quantity is varying slowly. This is especially needed when you are trying to make some adjustment to get a voltage to a maximum (or minimum) value. Balancing a measurement 'bridge' is a common example.
The maximum collector current is normally rated to be the current at which the DC current gain (hFE) falls to 50% of its maximum value. The maximum peak current is Page 2 Operation notes Transistors Rev.A 2/7 rated at a value which ensures reliability within the maximum allowed junction temperature.
define the maximum value of an ac wave form
Presumably you are referring to an a.c. current?If so, then the average value of an a.c. current is zero so, clearly, you cannot determine its maximum value.However, average current is more-usually applied over half a cycle, in which case, for a sinusoidal current, this value is 0.637 Imax. So the maximum current will be the average value, divided by 0.637.
Amplitude
maximum current will flow in that line
If you are referring to an a.c. current, then the maximum current is the amplitude of its waveform. For a sinusoidal waveform, the amplitude of an a.c. current is its root-mean-square value, divided by 0.707. For example, an a.c current with an rms value of, say, 10 A will have an amplitude of 14.14 A,
You are, presumably, referring to alternating current, in which case the 'maximum' current is the peak or amplitude of the waveform. The 'average' value of current is zero, because the average value of the first half of each cycle is negated by the average value over the second half of each cycle. This is why a.c. currents and voltages are always expressed in 'root-mean-square' (r.m.s.) values which is the value of an a.c. current that does the same amount of work as a given value of d.c. current. The r.m.s. value for a sinusoidal current (and voltage, as voltage and current are proportional) is 0.707 times the peak or maximum value.
The hFe (current gain) on the BC148 ranges from a minimum value of 20 to 100, depending on collector current, with a maximum value of 300.
