the High voltage rated diodes are power diodes while of low rating or normal voltage rating are considered to as ordinary / normal diode
Simple diode is a two-terminal pn-junction with appropriate contacts for connecting the junction to external circuits. Power diode is formed by alloying, diffusion, and epitaxial growth. The modern techniques in semiconductor fabrication processes permit the desired device characteristics. The operation of power diodes is similar to that of signal diodes; but it has larger power-, voltage-, and current-handling capabilities than those of ordinary diodes. Switching speed of the power diodes is low compared to that of signal diodes.
It will be dissipating more power than a small signal diode.
By giving proper gate triggering voltage... it can used to control the high power application like ordinary pn junction diode.
to limit the voltage or regulate the same.
it controls the speed. when the diode is busted it gains into fullspeed
An ordinary diode, no. It has nowhere to get energy from.But a solar cell is a type of diode that converts light to electricity. So it is a diode that can power a circuit. So yes, there is one type of diode that can power a circuit.
Diode: Which allows power in one direction or which converts AC to dc . Converter: Which converts DC to DC
Not sure of your context. A diode is a diode. One artificial distinction might be that an electric diode refers to a diode used in a higher power application with more current where an electronic diode might be found on a circuit board as part of an electronic lower power application.
The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.
Basically the semi-conductor junctions are a larger surface area and heat sinks are part of the design to dissipate heat.

Insulated wires and cables are commonly used conductors in power engineering
A: big difference diodes are semiconductor with the right polarity it can be a short to the power supply reversing will cause no problem and probably eliminate some spikes
It will be dissipating more power than a small signal diode.
1.0A RECTIFIER diode used to convert ac power to dc power
difference between the observed outcome and the "normal" outcome (the difference between P2 and Q
Ordinary form is when its the number e.g 70 000 . standard form is the digits above zero infron of how many times its multiplied. in this case the answer would be 7X10 to the power of 5 hope this helps
