Excellent explanation in above link, particularly the diag., thanks KnuKonceptz.

warmonger: When we refer to say, household electricity as 110vac, it is the rms voltage that is being referred to not the peak. When applied to a 110 ohm resistor 1 amp (rms) current flows producing 110 watts of heating power; the same effect as 110vdc.
