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".
