Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of an AC current is given by :


I=I_o sin\omega t

Where

I₀ is the peak value of current


\omega is angular frequency


As\ \omega=2\pi f

So,


f=(\omega)/(2\pi)\\\\f=(100\pi)/(2\pi)\\\\f=50\ Hz

We know that,


I_(rms)=(I_0)/(√(2))\\\\=(20)/(√(2))\\\\I_(rms)=14.14\ A

So, the frequency is 50 Hz and the maximum rms value of current is 14.14 A.
