In a half wave rectifier circuit operating from 50 Hz mains frequency, the fundamental frequency in the ripple would be

A

25 Hz

B

50 Hz

C

70.7 Hz

D

100 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Since the output voltage obtained in a half - wave recifier circuit has single variation in one cycle of ac voltage, hence the fundamental frequency in the ripple of output voltage would be 50 Hz.
