The peak voltage in the output of a half-wave diode rectifier fed with a sinusoidal signal without filter is 10 V. The dc component of the output voltage is [CBSE PMT 2004]
A) \[10/\sqrt{2}\,V\]
B) 10/p V
C) 10 V
D) 20/p V
Correct Answer:
B
Solution :
In half wave rectifier \[{{V}_{dc}}=\frac{{{V}_{0}}}{\pi }=\frac{10}{\pi }\]
