A single phase step up cycloconverter changes 50 Hz to 100 Hz. Then one half wave of input will give rise to

one half wave of output
one full wave of output
two full waves of output
either (b) or (c)

Correct Answer: one full wave of output

Explanation:

Since output frequency is 2f, one half wave of input must equal one full wave of output.
