The r.m.s. value of half wave rectified sine wave is 200 V. The r.m.s. value of full wave rectified AC. will be___________?
Correct answer: A. 282.8 V
- A. 282.8 V
- B. 141.4 V
- C. 111 V
- D. 100 V
Explanation
For a half-wave rectified sine wave, the RMS value is Iₘ/2, while for a full-wave rectified sine wave it is Iₘ/√2. Therefore the full-wave value is √2 times 200 V, giving 282.8 V.
