Question
In half-wave rectification, what is the output frequency if the input frequency is 50 Hz. What is the output frequency of a full-wave rectifier for the same input frequency.

Answer

Input frequency = 50 HzFor a half-wave rectifier, the output frequency is equal to the input frequency.
$\therefore$ Output frequency = 50 Hz
For a full-wave rectifier, the output frequency is twice the input frequency.
$\therefore$ Output frequency = 2 × 50 = 100 Hz
