In a half-wave rectifier using a $PN$ junction diode,the input voltage has an amplitude of $25 \ V$ and a frequency of $50 \ Hz$. No filter is used,and the load resistance is $1000 \ \Omega$. The forward resistance of the diode is $10 \ \Omega$. Calculate the peak,average,and $rms$ values of the load current,respectively.

  • A
    $24.75 \ mA, 7.88 \ mA, 12.38 \ mA$
  • B
    $20.75 \ mA, 7.15 \ mA, 11.3 \ mA$
  • C
    $24.75 \ mA, 12.3 \ mA, 12.3 \ mA$
  • D
    $20.05 \ mA, 6.88 \ mA, 10.3 \ mA$
