Physics · Alternating currents, peak and RMS value of alternating current/voltage
If the input frequency of a full wave rectifier is ac. Its output frequency is
If the input frequency of a full wave rectifier is \( 50 H z \) ac. Its output frequency is
- A. \( 50 H z \) pulsating dc
- B. \( 100 H z \) pulsating do
- C. \( 200 H z \) pulsating dc
- D. \( 500 H z \) pulsating dc
Step-by-step solution
A full-wave rectifier rectifies both half-cycles of the input AC, so the output pulses occur at twice the input frequency. For an input frequency of 50 Hz, the output frequency is 2 × 50 = 100 Hz.
