The direction of current through the load resistance of a full-wave rectification circuit:
Correct answer: A. remains constant
- A. remains constant
- B. inverts for positive cycle
- C. changes for every cycle
- D. inverts for negative cycle
Explanation
Rectification changes alternate current to direct current where current remains positive throughout the cycle.

About Alternating Current
Alternating current varies periodically, so phase relationships become essential when current passes through a resistor, capacitor or inductor. The chapter distinguishes resistance from capacitive and inductive reactance, explains phase lead and lag, and connects changing electric and magnetic fields with the production and properties of electromagnetic waves.
