Question

A full-wave rectifier circuit along with the out-put is shown in figure. The contribution from the diode D1 is

• A. A,C
• B. C
• C. B,D
• D. A,B,C,D

Answer 1

The correct option is A A,C

Initially, the voltage is positive for first half cycle, So the diode $D1$ will be on,

So $A$ represents diode $D1$

In next half cycle, the voltage is negative, so diode $D1$ will be off. Another diode will be on

In next cycle, again the voltage is positive, so diode $D1$ is on,

So $C$ represents diode $D1$

Therefore correct option is $A$.
