Concept

The ripple voltage of a full-wave rectifier is given by:

\(V_R={2.4V_{dc}\over R_LC}\)

∵ \({V_{dc}\over R_L}=I_L\)

\(V_R={2.4I_{L}\over C}\)

where, VR = Ripple voltage

IL = Load current

C = Capacitor

Calculation

Given, C = 100 μF

IL = 50 mA

\(V_R={2.4\times 50\times 10^{-3}\over 100\times 10^{-6}}\)

VR = 1.2 kV
