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

To solve the problem, we need to determine the output frequency of both a half-wave rectifier and a full-wave rectifier given an input frequency of 50 Hz. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Half-Wave Rectification**: - In half-wave rectification, the rectifier only allows one half (either positive or negative) of the AC signal to pass through. This means that for every cycle of the input AC signal, there is only one output pulse. - Therefore, the output frequency of a half-wave rectifier is equal to the input frequency. ...
