Step 1

Step 1: Since the input currents are of rectangular waveforms, we can calculate the RMS current using the formula: \[I_{rms} = \frac{I_{max}}{\sqrt{3}}\] where $I_{max}$ is the maximum amplitude of the current. Show more…

Due to the fact that the waves are not 50 50 duty cycle, we need to compute the harmonic components to answer this question right? Or maybe we don't? There is already a Chegg answer on this question. Is it correct? Why? 2.
