In a full-wave $P-N$ junction diode rectifier, a load resistance of $1500 \ \Omega$ is used. No filter is used. Assume each diode has a forward resistance $R_f = 10 \ \Omega$ and reverse resistance $R_r = \infty$. When a sinusoidal voltage with a peak amplitude of $30 \ V$ and frequency $50 \ Hz$ is applied, calculate the $D.C.$ power output and $A.C.$ power input respectively.

  • A
    $255.5 \ mW, 155.8 \ mW$
  • B
    $262.1 \ mW, 155.8 \ mW$
  • C
    $275.3 \ mW, 205.5 \ mW$
  • D
    $240.4 \ mW, 295.9 \ mW$
