NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Easy-Class 12
In a full-wave rectifier circuit with a center-tapped transformer, if the voltage at point A is positive, what happens to diode D2?
A
Diode D2 is reverse biased and does not conduct.
B
Diode D2 is forward biased and conducts.
C
Diode D2 is in a neutral state and partially conducts.
D
Diode D2 completely blocks the current flow.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
When the voltage at point A is positive, diode D1 conducts while diode D2 is reverse biased and does not conduct, as per the behavior of diodes in a rectifier circuit.
