In a half wave rectifier circuit operating from 50 Hz mains frequency, the fundamental frequency in the ripple would be.
A
25 Hz
B
50 Hz
C
70.7Hz
D
100 Hz
Answer
50 Hz
Explanation
Solution
: as the output voltage obtained in a half wave rectifier circuit has a single variation in one cycle of ac voltage, hence the fundamental frequency in the ripple of output voltage would be =50 Hz.
