Effective and mean voltage
A voltage divider consisting of resistors R1 = 103000 Ω and R2 = 197000 Ω is connected to the ideal sine wave voltage source. R2 is connected to a voltmeter, which measures the mean voltage and has an internal resistance R3 = 200300 Ω. The measured value is 109 V. Determine the effective source voltage.
