it makes current wave more smooth
An open diode will result in no output from a half wave rectifier, and an open diode will cut the output of a full wave rectifier in half.
Its no longer a rectifier and the resistors may catch fire.
rectifier is used to resist the current likewise in bridge wave rectifier ,the inductive load is used to resist high amount of current because in bridge wave we cannot resist the current by using rectifier ..so we are using inductive load here
I am not exactly sure why it is said it can't be used, I myslef was searching for an answer when I came across this, I have a general idea about this, why I would like to share. There can be two possible reasons. 1. The inductor produces a back-emf which opposes any change in current, but in the output of a HWR, the decrease in current and a no current state predominates a increase in current, so the inductor will naturally oppose a increase in current, which will mean a low dc voltage is obtained. [i.e. lower than the peak value] 2. The reactance of inductor increases with increase in frequency, the output frequency of a HWR is half that of a FWR. Thus filtering of higher harmonic waves is favoured.

Since we know that inductance of an inductor depends on the length of inductor by the formula L=muAN*N/l, where l is the length of inductor. So by varying the length of inductor we say that inductance of inductor varies.
The effect of an RL circuit in half wave rectifier is that the voltage output wave forms for current and voltage will be modified .

To know the difference between capacitor and non capacitor rectifiers one must study what is the function of filter part.the filter part consists of capacitors or inductors or combination of both. the output of a simple diode rectifier is pulsating dc which means it consists of both dc part and ac part. filters are used to remove the ac part from such an output. capacitor filter means that a capacitor is used for filtering out the ac part. non capacitor or inductor filter means that an inductor is used for filtering out the ac part. There is another type called pii filter where both inductor and capacitor are used. Pii filter is the best kind of filter available
When you put a light bulb in series with a inductor, the inductive reactance of the inductor reduces the current available to the light bulb, making it less bright. For this effect to be noticed, however, you need a very large inductor. To cut the current in a 60W bulb at 120VAC/60Hz by one half, for instance, you need an inductor around 0.6 henrys.
No inductor is perfect and has a capacitive and resistive component. As frequency increases, these components have more effect on the circuit operation. A capacitive component would be out of phase and be the imaginary value.
When your circuit starts up, your inductor creates an electrical current in the opposite direction. With dc, this effect vanished after the circuit is started. With ac, the current keeps starting and stopping so the inductor keeps creating a current in the opposite direction.

what is an inductor used for
A capacitor try to leads the current while a inductor tries to legs the current so they cancels each other's effect ....
