If a full wave rectifier circuit is operating from 50 Hz mains, the fundamental frequency in the ripple will be

Options

(a) 50 Hz
(b) 70.7 Hz
(c) 100 Hz
(d) 25 Hz

Correct Answer:

100 Hz

Explanation:

In a full wave rectifier, Fundamental frequency in ripple = 2 × input frequency

Fundamental frequency = 2 × 50

Fundamental frequency = 100 Hz.
