    Diode is used as a/an    

    A) rectifier      

    B)        oscillator             

    C)        amplifier         

    D)        modulator.

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Diode is a device which allows to pass a current only when it is forward baised. Thats why if we use one alternating voltage (Forward bias of diode) source instead of a battery, during the negative cycles the diode will be reverse biased and will not allow the current to flow. Hence it can be used as a rectifier.
