For the circuit shown in the adjoining figure,to act as a full-wave rectifier,the $AC$ input should be connected across $....$ and $....$ and the $DC$ output would appear across $....$ and $....$.

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.
