In half-wave rectification what is the output frequencey if the input frequency is 50 Hz. What is the output frequency of a full-wave rectifier for the same input frequency?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

For a half-wave rectifier the output frequency is equal to the input frequency.
`:.` Output frequency =50 Hz
A full-wave rectifier rectifies both the halves of the input ac.
`:.` Output frequency =`2xx` input frequency
`=2 xx 50 =100` Hz
