A full-wave rectifier is operating from 50Hz mains. The fundamental frequency of ripple will be?

Correct answer: A. 100 Hz

  • A. 100 Hz
  • B. 25Hz
  • C. 50Hz
  • D. 200Hz

Explanation

Full-wave rectification is a type of rectification in which output is obtained for both halves of a.c. Whereas, the frequency of the output is double that of the input. In a full-wave rectifier, the frequency of the ripple is double that of the main frequency. Hence ripple frequency = "100 Hz".
