The algebraic sum of the areas must be determined since some area
contributions are from below the horizontal axis. Areas above the axis are
assigned a positive sign and those below it a negative sign. A positive
average value is then above the axis, and a negative value is below it.

If switch 2 is closed and switch 1 left open, the ac current through the
resistor has a peak value of Im. The temperature reached by the water is now
determined by the ac power dissipated in the form of heat by the resistor.
The ac input is varied until the temperature is the same as that reached with
the dc input. When this is accomplished, the average electrical power
delivered to the resistor R by the ac source is the same as that delivered by
the dc source.
The power delivered by the ac supply at any instant of time is
However,
Therefore,

The average power delivered by the ac source is just the first term.
Equating the average power delivered by the ac generator to that delivered
by the dc source,
The equivalent dc value is called the rms or effective value of the sinusoidal
quantity.
As a simple numerical example, it requires an ac current with a peak
value of √ (10) = 14.14 A to deliver the same power to the resistor in Fig.
34 as a dc current of 10 A.

The relationship between the peak value and the rms value is
