The three phase bridge rectifier has the highest ripple frequency. In a 60 Hz system, the ripple frequency would be 360 Hz. If it were a one phase bridge rectifier, the ripple frequency would be 120 Hz.
The ripple frequency of a half-wave rectifier is the same as the input frequency.
Measuring ripple frequency would determine if a diode were open in a bridge rectifier circuit because the ripple frequency is normally twice the input frequency in a functioning full wave bridge rectifier. If one diode were open, the ripple frequency would only be the input frequency. Note: This is true for single phase or bi-phase operation. Three phase operation is more complex, but still doable - You would expect three times input frequency in normal state, and two times (asymmetric) with one open diode.
It depends on whether or not it is a half wave or full wave rectifier. For a single phase 60 Hz rectifier, a half wave rectifier will be 60 Hz while a full wave rectifier will be 120 Hz. A three phase full wave rectifier will be 360 Hz.
Ripple factor ripple factor is very important in deciding the efficiency of the rectifier .ripple factor give the total power converted AC input to the DC output. Ideal ripple factor should be zero and power factor 1. Ripple factor of half wave rectifier 1.21 and full wave rectifier is 0.48.
when rectifier is on, the capacitor is almost transparent (it charges to the voltage provided from the rectifier) when rectifier is off, capacitor holds the peak voltage since it stored a charge during rectifier on time.
The ripple frequency of a half-wave rectifier is the same as the input frequency.
twice the frequency that is rectified.
To measure the ripple frequency in a bridge rectifier circuit, use an oscilloscope to observe the output voltage waveform. The ripple frequency is typically twice the input AC frequency if the diodes are functioning properly since the rectifier conducts during both halves of the AC cycle. If the ripple frequency is lower than expected, it may indicate that one or more diodes are open, preventing proper rectification. Comparing the measured frequency to the expected value helps diagnose the condition of the diodes.
A single phase half wave rectifier outputs ripple the same frequency as the input. A single phase full wave rectifier outputs ripple fundamental twice the input frequency (assuming balanced recitfiers). A three phase full wave rectifier outputs ripple fundamental six times the input frequency. So 50 Hz input would yield 300 Hz ripple. See Sources and Related Links for more information.

The frequency of a full-wave rectifier is double that of the input, if the input is a sine wave or triangle wave. If the input is a square wave, the output is DC. If the input is a sawtooth wave, the output is a triangle wave of the same frequency.
The Ripple factor for full-wave rectifier is given by: r= Iac/Idc = 0.482
It depends on whether or not it is a half wave or full wave rectifier. For a single phase 60 Hz rectifier, a half wave rectifier will be 60 Hz while a full wave rectifier will be 120 Hz. A three phase full wave rectifier will be 360 Hz.
Ripple voltage in a capacitor-input filter primarily arises from the charging and discharging cycles of the capacitor. When the rectifier conducts, the capacitor charges to the peak voltage of the input signal. As the load draws current, the capacitor discharges, causing the voltage to drop until the rectifier conducts again, resulting in a voltage ripple. The magnitude of this ripple depends on factors such as the load current, capacitance value, and input frequency.

If the rectifier is wye connected, ripple will increase. If it is delta connected, ripple will substantially increase. Whether or not the rest of the rectifier, filter, and regulator are damaged will depend on how much current is being pulled by whats left, and by how deep the ripple actually becomes.
