A diode is connected to 220 V (rms) ac in series with a capacitor as shown in figure. The voltage across the capacitor is
A
220 V
B
110 V
C
311.1 V
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
The diode D will conduct for positive half cycle of a.c. supply because this is forward biased. For negative half cycle of a.c. supply, this is reverse biased and does not conduct. So out put would be half wave rectified and for half wave rectified out put
