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

`220sqrt(2)V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
As p-n junction conducts during positive half cycle only, the diode connected here will work in positive half cycle. Potential difference across C = peak voltage of the given AC voltage `=V_(0)=V_(rms)sqrt(2)=220sqrt(2)V`.
