Question

Describe how a semiconductor diode is used as a half wave rectifier?​

Answer 1

$\huge{ \pmb{ \frak{ \underline{ \color{blue}{❥Answer}}}}}$

$\implies$the diode acts as infinite resistance and there is no current in the circuit.So, the the open points experience current only in clockwise direction thereby rectifying the wave only half i.e. only in one direction.
