How to convert Alternate current to direct cutrent

The task of turning alternating current into direct current is called rectification, and the electronic circuit that does the job is called a
rectifier . The most common way to convert alternating current into direct current is to use one or more diodes , those handy electronic components that allow current to pass in one direction but not the other.
Although a rectifier converts alternating current to direct current, the resulting direct current isn’t a steady voltage. It would be more accurate to refer to it as “pulsating DC.” Although the pulsating DC current always moves in the same direction, the voltage level has a distinct ripple to it, rising and falling a bit in sync with the waveform of the AC voltage that’s fed into the rectifier.
For many DC circuits, a significant amount of ripple in the power supply can cause the circuit to malfunction. Therefore, additional filtering is required to “flatten” the pulsating DC that comes from a rectifier to eliminate the ripple.
There are three distinct types of rectifier circuits you can build: half-wave, full-wave, and bridge. The following describes each of these three rectifier types.

The diodes are connected to the two outer taps, and the center tap is used as a common ground for the rectified DC voltage. The full-wave rectifier converts both halves of the AC sine wave to positive-voltage direct current. The result is DC voltage that pulses at twice the frequency of the input AC voltage
yessss.
But it is very short
