What are examples of diodes?
There are so many different types of diodes. Some of the common examples include light emitting diodes, silicon diodes, zener diodes and so many more.
How many diodes in full wave rectifier?
Depends on the number of phases.single phase uses 4 diodesthree phase uses 6 diodes
Is superposition theorem applicable for diodes?
No, diodes are not linear elements like resistors are. Current can only flow in one direction in diodes.
Describe the effects of reversing all the diodes directions?
If diodes are not istalled in the right direction and an electrrical current applied the diodes may burn out
Why diodes does not work properly in high frequency?
Diodes have capacitance, placing a limit on their switching rate.

What practical uses do solubility tables have?
There are a couple of practical uses that solubility tables have. These include figuring out the solvents that can help with cleaning spills from some chemicals and finding how much of something can be dissolved into something else.
