Question

The peak voltage in the output of a half-wave diode rectifier fed with a sinusiodal signal without filter is `10 V`. The `dc` component of the output voltage is
A. `10/sqrt2` V
B. `10/pi` V
C. 10 V
D. `20/pi` V

Answer 1

Correct Answer - B
In a half wave rectifier, the d.c. component of the output voltage is given by `V_(d.c.)=V_0/pi=10/pi`
