In the process of rectification, the current received across the load resistance is
Correct answer: B. D.C
- A. A.C
- B. D.C
- C. both a & b
- D. none of these
Explanation
In the process of rectification, the alternating current (A.C) is converted into direct current (D.C). Therefore, the current received across the load resistance after rectification is DC, which flows in one direction only.Incorrect Options and Explanations: (a) A.C - Rectification converts AC to DC, so the output current is not AC. (c) both a & b - Rectification converts AC to DC, so the output current is DC only, not both AC and DC. (d) none of these - The current received after rectification is DC, so this option is incorrect.

About Electronics
A p-n junction forms when p-type and n-type semiconductor regions meet, creating a depletion layer, barrier potential and rectifying action. The work covers forward and reverse bias, junction current, diode characteristics, and how a diode converts alternating current into pulsating direct current through half-wave and full-wave rectification.
