    A 220 V A.C. supply is connected between points A and B in Figure. What will be the potential difference V across the capacitor?

    A) 220 V

    B) 110 V

    C) 0 V

    D) 220\[\sqrt{2}\] V

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Option [d] is correct.
    Explanation:  Potential difference across capacitors will be peak voltage when diode is in forward bias. Diode will be in forward bias when end A is at positive potential of cycle.
    So potential at C = peak value of \[\operatorname{V}={{V}_{\operatorname{rms}}}\sqrt{\operatorname{V}}\]
