Answer

$37.3mA$

Work Step by Step

The required rms current can be determined as follows: $Z=\sqrt{R^2+(2\pi fL)^2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $Z=\sqrt{(525)^2+(2\pi(60)(295\times 10^{-3}))^2}$ $Z=536.63\Omega$ Now $I_{rms}=\frac{V_{rms}}{Z}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $I_{rms}=\frac{20.0V}{563.3\Omega}$ $I_{rms}=37.3\times 10^{-3}=37.3mA$
