Rectify: To convert alternating current to a unidirectional current by remov-
ing or inverting the part of the waveform on one side of the zero-amplitude
axis.
RMS v: Root-mean-square.
Sinusoidal: Having the form of a sine wave.
Square-law meter scale: The scale required for a meter movement, such as
the iron-vane movement, for which the repelling force, and hence the pointer.
