The RMS (root mean square) of the peak voltage of a sine wave is about 0.707 times the peak voltage. Recall that the sine wave represents a changing voltage, and it varies from zero to some positive peak, back to zero, and then down to some negative peak to complete the waveform. The root mean square (RMS) is the so-called "DC equivalent voltage" of the sine wave. The voltage of a sine wave varies as described, while the voltage of a DC source can be held at a constant. The "constant voltage" here, the DC equivalent, is the DC voltage that would have to be applied to a purely resistive load (like the heating element in a toaster, iron or a clothes dryer) to get the same effective heating as the AC voltage (the sine wave). Here's the equation: VoltsRMS = VoltsPeak x 0.707 The 0.707 is half the square root of 2. It's actually about 0.70710678 or so.

Where are Vpp and V rms?
Vpp is Peak-to-Peak voltage, in other words, in AC voltage, the peak-to-peak voltage is the potential difference between the lowest trough in the AC signal to the highest. Assuming the reference to the voltage is zero, Vpp would be twice the peak voltage (between zero and either the highest or lowest point in the AC waveform). Vrms is the Root Mean Square voltage, think of it as sort of an average (it's not quite that simple). For a sine wave, the RMS voltage can be calculated by y=a*sin(2ft) where f is the frequency of the signal, t is time, and a is the amplitude or peak value.
What is the rms voltage for 144 volts modified sine wave?
if that 144 is the peak voltage if its a sine wave the rms voltage is that voltage divided by sqrt(2) if not a sine wave (modified) you must find the area under the curve by integrating a cycle of that wave shape (root mean squared)
What is the peak-to peak voltage of a 56 Vrms ac voltage?
For a sine wave, the form factor is the square root of 2. Thus, the effective voltage of 56 V (56 Vrms) is 2-1/2 times the peak-to-peak voltage. Thus, the peak-to-peak voltage Vpp = Vrms * sqrt(2)In this example:Vpp = 56V * 1.4142... = 79.2V (rounded to one decimal place)
Are peak-to-peak and rms voltage measurements the same?
No, the peak-to-peak voltage is 2sqrt(2) times as much as the rms for a pure sine-wave.

What is the difference of peak and rms value?
RMS stands for "Root of the Means Squared", and is a mathematical method of defining the "operating" voltage of a sine wave power source. Typical home lighting and outlet voltage presently is 120 VAC (volts alternating current), 60 Hz. (Hertz, formerly referred to as "cycles per second".) But the PEAK voltage is the absolute maximum voltage at the "peak" of each sine wave of voltage. Mathematically, the "Peak" voltage is 1.414 (which is the square root of the number 2) times the RMS voltage, and conversely, the RMS voltage is 0.707 times the PEAK voltage.
