A single - phase half controlled converter shown in the figure feeding power to highly inductive load. The converter is operating at a firing angle of $${60^ \circ }.$$

If the firing pulses are suddenly removed, the steady state voltage $$\left( {{V_0}} \right)$$ waveform of the converter will become

A single phase fully controlled converter bridge is used for electrical braking of a separately excited $$dc$$ motor. The $$dc$$ motor load is represented by an equivalent circuit as shown in the figure.

Assume that the load inductance is sufficient to ensure continuous and ripple free load current. The firing angle of the bridge for a load current of $${{\rm I}_0} = 10\,\,A$$ will be

A single $$-$$ phase, $$230$$ $$V$$, $$50$$ $$Hz$$ $$ac$$ mains fed step down transformer $$(4:1)$$ is supplying power to a half $$-$$ wave uncontrolled $$ac$$ $$-$$ $$dc$$ converter used for charging a battery ($$12$$ $$V$$ $$dc$$) with the series current limiting resistor being $$19.04\,\Omega $$. The charging current is

In the circuit of adjacent figure the diode connects the $$ac$$ source to pure inductance $$L.$$

The diode conducts for
