In the circuit given below , V(t) is the sinusoidal voltage source , voltage drop `V_(AB)(t)` across the resistance R is

Options

A. Is half wave rectified
B. Is full wave rectified
C. Has the same peak value in the positive and negative half cycles
D. Has the same peak value in the positive and negative half cycles

Answer

D

Explanation

In positive half cycle , one diode is in forward biasing and other is in reverse biasing , while in negative half cycle their polarity revises, and direction of current its opposite through R for positive and negative half cycles hence output is not rectified.
Since `R_1 and R_2` are different , hence the peaks during positive half and negative half of the input signal will be different.
