Question
A single phase half wave rectifier is feeding a resistive load. Input voltage v = V_m sin ?t. The output dc voltage is V_dc and output rms voltage is V_rms . If firing angle is 180�, V_dc and V_rms respectively are
Options
A. 0 and 0
B.
C. 0 and - V_m
D.

Correct Answer

0 and 0

Explanation

Put a = 180� in Eqs

A single phase half wave rectifier is feeding a resistive load. Input voltage v = Vm sin ?t. The out

Otherwise also a = 180� means no conduction.

Hence zero output voltage.
