$A$ sinusoidal voltage of peak value $200\,V$ is connected to a diode and resistor $R$ in the circuit shown,so that half-wave rectification occurs. If the forward resistance of the diode is negligible compared to $R$,the rms value of voltage across $R$ is approximately (in volt):

  • A
    $200$
  • B
    $100$
  • C
    $100/\sqrt{2}$
  • D
    $141$
