RECTIFICATION

Select all statements that are true about the image!

• It is a diode

• It is a one way gate that allows current to flow in one direction.

• If it is connected to a circuit in that orientation, current can flow only to the right.

• If it is connected to a circuit in that orientation, current can flow only to the left.

Which diode should be connected to the circuit so that the current will flow across the load resistor?

• 
• 
• 
• 

Select which diodes are conducting when terminal Y of the supply is positive (The AC flows from the terminal Y)!

Select which diodes are conducting when terminal X of the supply is positive (The AC flows from the terminal X)!

Identify the direction of current in the resistor R when the AC flows from terminal X!.
