A 220 V AC supply is connected between points A and B . What will be the potential difference V across the capacitor ?

A

`220 V`

B

`110 V`

C

`0 V`

D

`220 sqrt2 V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

As `p -n` junction conducts during positive halft cycle only, the diode connected here will work is positive half cycle. Potential difference across `C =`peak voltage of the given AC voltage `= V_(0) = V_("rms") sqrt2 = 220 sqrt2 V`
