Average current taken over a full cycle
Average current taken over a full cycle and illustrated in Fig. 4.5b is given as:

Iav=12π∫02πVpsin⁡ωtRD+RLd(ωt)+∫π2π0d(ωt)(4.4)I_{av} = \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_0^{2\pi} \frac{V_p \sin \omega t}{R_D + R_L} d(\omega t) + \int_\pi^{2\pi} 0 d(\omega t) \quad (4.4) Iav=Vp2π(RD+RL)∫0πsin⁡ωt d(ωt)(4.5)I_{av} = \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} \int_0^\pi \sin \omega t \, d(\omega t) \quad (4.5) =Vp2π(RD+RL)∫0πsin⁡ωt d(ωt)= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} \int_0^\pi \sin \omega t \, d(\omega t)

Recall that θ=ωt\theta = \omega t.
Integration is with respect to ωt\omega t and not tt.

=Vp2π(RD+RL)[−cos⁡ωt]0π= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} [-\cos \omega t]_0^\pi =Vp2π(RD+RL)[−cos⁡π−(−cos⁡0)]= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} [-\cos \pi - (-\cos 0)] =Vp2π(RD+RL)[−(−1)+(1)]= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} [-(-1) + (1)] =Vp2π(RD+RL)[1+1]= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} [1 + 1] =Vp2π(RD+RL)[2]= \frac{V_p}{2\pi(R_D + R_L)} [2] Iav=Vpπ(RD+RL)I_{av} = \frac{V_p}{\pi(R_D + R_L)}

But maximum current Ip=VpRD+RLI_p = \frac{V_p}{R_D + R_L}.
Therefore,

Iav=Ipπ(4.6)I_{av} = \frac{I_p}{\pi} \quad (4.6)

Output dc power
Output dc power is given by:

Pdc=Iav2×RLP_{dc} = I_{av}^2 \times R_L Pdc=[Ipπ]2×RL(4.7)P_{dc} = \left[\frac{I_p}{\pi}\right]^2 \times R_L \quad (4.7)

Observe that output power is taken from resistance of load.
The power in input ac signal (input ac power) is given as:

Pin(ac)=Ir.m.s2×[RD+RL]=VinIin(4.8)P_{in(ac)} = I_{r.m.s}^2 \times [R_D + R_L] = V_{in} I_{in} \quad (4.8)

where Ir.m.s=Ip2I_{r.m.s} = \frac{I_p}{\sqrt{2}} and Ir.m.s2=Ip22I_{r.m.s}^2 = \frac{I_p^2}{2}.
For a rectified half wave,

Ir.m.s=Ip2=maximum current through load2(4.9)I_{r.m.s} = \frac{I_p}{2} = \frac{\text{maximum current through load}}{2} \quad (4.9)
