Answer:
False.
Explanation:
The RMS (Root Mean Square) value of a sine wave represents the equivalent DC voltage that would produce the same amount of power in a resistive load. However, the heat produced in a resistor is directly proportional to the square of the current passing through it (according to Joule's Law). In the case of an AC waveform, the current continuously changes direction, resulting in a time-varying power dissipation. Therefore, comparing the RMS value of an AC waveform to a DC voltage is not directly applicable in terms of heat produced in a resistor.
