Draw the circuit diagram of a fullwave rectifier using p-n junction diode. Explain its working and show the output, input waveforms.
Show the output waveforms (Y) for the following inputs A and B of
1. OR gate.
2. NAND gate.

Answer

Duringfirsthalf cycle:

A is positive w.r.t centre tap but B is negative, hence only diode D₁ conducts and current flows through the load in the sense X to Y.

During the second half cycle:

B is positive w.r.t centre tap but A is negative hence only diode D₂ conducts and again send currents through load from X and Y.

$\therefore$ Current through the load, in both the halves of input, is unidirectional.

Electrons emitted with negligible speed from an electron gun are accelerated through a potential difference V along the x-axis. These electrons emerge from a narrow hole into a uniform magnetic field B directed along this axis. However, some of the electrons emerging from the hole make slightly divergent angles, as shown in the figure. Show that these paraxial electrons are refocussed on the x-axis at a distance $\sqrt{\frac{8\pi^2\text{mV}}{\text{eB}^2}}.$
