For the circuit shown below, Vs=230V, Voltage drop across the diode (Vd) = 2V The peak value of voltage at R in the positive and the negative half cycles are ___ & ___ respectively.

For the circuit shown below, Vs=230V, Voltage drop across the diode (Vd) = 2V The peak value of voltage at R in the positive and the negative half cycles are ___ & ___ respectively. Correct Answer 0V, 323V

Load is S.C in the positive half cycle hence, voltage is zero. In negative half the peak value is (230 x 1.414) – 2(drop across the diode) = 323 Volts.
