A: must assume an AC source of greater amplitude of .7volts then when the source reaches .7 volts a diode will conduct if the positive voltage is at the anode then it will proceed to go trough the load and return the current to the diode connected to the negative of the source. That basically finishes one half of the cycle when the AC reverses polarity then the same process of current flow will finish the complete cycle. while different series diode conduct one way the other will not conduct because of reverse biasing. but the load will conduct current one way for both cycles

Bridge Rectifier


Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier for low voltage applications?

there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.


How does bridge rectifier control a DC motor?

give answer how to control the speed of dc motor using bridge rectifier ? ANSWER: A bridge rectifier by itself does not control anything it merely convert AC into DC. the controlling is done by other means SCR TRIACS AND SERVO loop


What is the effect of inductive load on a single phase full wave bridge rectifier?

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


What is the advantages of using the bridge rectifier over the center tapped rectifier?

you only use half the number of windings in the bridge comparing it to the center tapped , and in the bridge rectifier the peak inverse voltage that a diode must be able to sustain without break down is half of that in the center tapped PIV per diode: center tapped: 2Vm : bridge : 1Vm


What happens when one of the diodes is removed from the bridge rectifier?

Nothing will happen to the diode but that rectifier effectively becomes a half-wave rectifier.


Does the bridge rectifier follow the value of the input current?

No.
