NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

In a half-wave rectifier circuit as described, if the input AC voltage has a peak value of 20 V, what is the approximate peak voltage across the load resistor during forward bias of the diode, assuming an ideal diode with no voltage drop?

A

20 V

B

18 V

C

14 V

D

10 V

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In a half-wave rectifier with an ideal diode, the peak voltage across the load resistor is equal to the peak input AC voltage during forward bias, as the diode conducts without any voltage drop.
