A conductor carries a current that may be regarded as equivalent to the sum of two components, one of them being a continuous direct current of 4.2 amp and the other a superimposed full-wave rectifier current. If the latter has a maximum value of 6.4 amp, calculate the average current in the wire if (a) both components have the same direction, (b) the two components are oppositely directed?
