If I hava non periodic waveform and I divide it into 3 cycles is taking the RMS of each cycle and averaging the same thing as taking the RMS of all 3 cycles at once?
RMS stands for Root Mean Square and it is a mathematical measure of the average magnitude of a set of values. It is calculated by taking the square root of the sum of squared values divided by the total number of values.
f1 and f2 refer to two different sets of values that are being combined in the equation. They can represent any type of data, such as sound waves or electrical signals.
The RMS of two sets of values is calculated by first finding the RMS of each set separately. Then, the RMS values are added together and the square root is taken to find the final RMS value.
No, the RMS of two sets of values will always be equal to or less than the sum of their individual RMS values. This is because the RMS value is a measure of the average magnitude, and when two sets of values are combined, the average magnitude will not increase without any additional values.
Calculating the RMS of combined sets of values is important because it gives us a measure of the overall magnitude or power of the combined values. This can be useful in various fields such as signal processing, audio engineering, and data analysis.
