It is a L-C-R circuit  

RMS value is defined as the value of alternating current ( AC) over a complete cycle which would generate same amount of heat in a given resistors that is generated by steady current in the same resistor and in the same time during a complete cycle .

Irms = Io / ( 2 )1/2 - equation 1

Where Io is the maximum current in the circuit.

Amplitude of voltage supplied is given

V = Vo sinwt

Where t is time and w is angular frequency.

Vo is maximum voltage in the circuit and it is given = 170 V

Z = Vo / Io - equation = 2

Z is Impedence , it is the total resistance of a circuit applied in the path of a alternating current.

Z = [ R2 + ( XL   - XC  ) 2  ]1/2 - equation 3

where R is the resistance it is given, R = 104 ohms

XL is Inductive Reactance and Xc is Capacitive Reactance. Both have same S. I unit as resistance ohm.

XL = w.L

Where L is inductance and it is given L = 0.7 H

w is angular frequency ,

w = 2.π.f = 2*π*60 =120π , where f is frequency ( Hz)

XL = 120π x 0.7 = 84 π

Xc = 1/ w. C

Where C is capacitance and it is given = 6uf

Or 6 x 10-6 f and w is angular frequency

Xc = 1/ (120π) *( 6 x 10-6 )

Xc = 442.10 ohm

Now put all the values in equation 3

Z = 206.34 ohm

Now use equation 2

Z = Vo/Io

Io = 170 / 206.34

Io = 0.82 A

Use equation 1

Irms = 0.58 A.
