We cannot use a D.C. Voltmeter to measure an alternating voltage because,

Answer»

the alternating voltage changes direction
A.C. cannotpass THORUGH the D.C. VOLTMETER
The average value of an alternating emf over a complete is ZERO, Hence D.C. Voltmeter will not show any deflection
As the pointer showing the reading of the voltmeter is deflected 50 TIMES per second, it is damaged

Solution :`I_(rms) = 2/(sqrt(2))= sqrt(2)A`.
