Explanation: I = Vo/R 8. When the switch is open, the current through the diode in the positive cycle is
A. zero
B. Vs/R
C. Vs/(R+Rd)
D. none of the mentioned
Answer:A
Explanation: I = Vo/R 8. When the switch is open, the current through the diode in the positive cycle is
A. zero B. Vs/R C. Vs/(R+Rd) D. none of the mentioned
Explanation: When the switch is open, the diode is forward biased and I = Vs/(Rd + R). Where, Rd is the diode resistance. 9. For the circuit shown in the figure below, consider the diode as an ideal diode & R.M.S value of source voltage as Vs.
