A single phase diode bridge rectifier supplies a highly inductive load. The load current can be assumed to be ripple free. The ac supply side current waveform will be:

A $$dc$$ to $$dc$$ transistor chopper supplied from a fixed voltage $$dc$$ source feeds a fixed resistive-inductive load and a free-wheeling diode. The chopper operates at $$1$$ $$kHz$$ and $$50$$% duty cycle. Without changing the value of the average $$dc$$ current through the load, if it is desired to reduce the ripple content of load current, the control action needed will be

A single phase Inverter with square wave output voltage will have in its output waveform a fifth harmonic component equal to ______ percentage of the fundamental

An inverter capable of supplying a balanced three - phase variable voltage variable frequency output is feeding a three - phase induction motor rated for $$50$$ $$Hz$$ and $$440V.$$ The stator winding resistances of the motor are negligible small. During starting, the current inrush can be avoided without sacrificing the starting torque by suitably applying.
