AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution **Step 1: Definition of a Rectifier** A rectifier is a device that converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). The process of converting AC to DC is known as rectification. **Step 2: Types of Rectifiers** There are two main types of rectifiers: 1. Half-wave rectifier ...
