Question:
If the input frequency is 50 Hz, the output frequency of a full wave rectifier is:
If the input frequency is 50 Hz, the output frequency of a full wave rectifier is:
Show Hint
A full-wave rectifier doubles the frequency of the AC input because it allows current to flow through the load during both halves of the cycle, essentially converting negative cycles to positive.

- 75 Hz
- 25 Hz
- 50 Hz
- 100 Hz
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
A full-wave rectifier inverts every half-cycle of the AC input signal, effectively doubling the frequency of the input AC signal.
Therefore, if the input frequency is 50 Hz, the output frequency of a full-wave rectifier will be: \[ 2 \times 50 \, {Hz} = 100 \, {Hz} \]
