A single-phase $$SCR$$ based $$ac$$ regulator is feeding power to a load consisting of $$5\,\,\Omega $$ resistance and $$16$$ $$mH$$ inductance. The input supply is $$230$$ $$V,$$ $$50$$ $$Hz$$ $$ac.$$ The maximum firing angle at which the voltage across the device becomes zero all throughout and the $$rms$$ value of current through $$SCR,$$ under this operating condition, are
