Answer 1

Answer:

in a full-wave rectification circuit the d c load current equals 1amp. how much d c current is carried by each diode

Answer 2

Answer:

1 amp

Explanation:

• There are two diodes in a full wave rectifier, but only one conducts at once. The transformer centre tap supplying the rectifier is where the return path leads.
• According to Kirchhoff's Law, the diode will experience the same 1 amp current as the load is experiencing.
• Four diodes make up a full wave bridge wave rectifier. One diode is in the forward path to the load during one half of the AC cycle, and the other is in the return path.
• According to Kirchhoff, each will see 1 amp. The other two diodes pass the current when the other half of the cycle happens, and you got it—both diodes detect the 1 amp current—one detects it going in and the other seeing it going out.
