Solution

It is given that the input frequency is 50 Hz.

In the case of half wave rectifier, the output frequency will be equal to input frequency.

The output frequency for half wave rectifier is,

f hw =50 Hz

In the case of full wave rectifier, the output frequency will be twice the input frequency.

So, the output frequency for full wave rectifier is,

f fw =2×50 =100 Hz

Thus, the output frequency in the case of half wave rectifier is 50 Hz and the output frequency in the case of full wave rectifier is 100 Hz.
