A full wave rectifier uses two diodes with a load resistance of `100 Omega`. Each diode is having negligible forward resistance. Find the efficiency of this wave rectifier.

A

`812%`

B

`40.6%`

C

`80.4%`

D

`40.2%`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Efficiency, `eta=("Output")/("Input")xx100`
`=((812)/(1+(10)/(1500)))xx100=80.4%`
