Did anyone say you do? You clearly end up with the original number
after squaring a square root.
Everyone who ends up with an rms value for power. Square rms voltage and you
get mean square voltage. Divide by the resistance and you get mean power. The
root disappears because the rms value is squared.
I think I've made the point I was trying to make.
No you haven't, I for one don't have a clue what point you are trying to
make, your explanation is clear as mud. I understand that power is
power and am guessing that may be the point you are trying to make, but
if I didn't already know that I wouldn't have a clue that was your
point, assuming it even is, from what you wrote.
