In half-wave rectification, if the input frequency is 60 Hz60\text{ Hz}, the output frequency will be:

A

120 Hz120\text{ Hz}

B

zero

C

30 Hz30\text{ Hz}

D

60 Hz60\text{ Hz}

Step-by-Step Solution

In a half-wave rectifier, the output produces one pulse for every complete cycle of the input AC. Therefore, the fundamental frequency of the output pulsating DC is equal to the input AC frequency (fout=finf_{out} = f_{in}). Given the input frequency is 60 Hz60\text{ Hz}, the output frequency will also be 60 Hz60\text{ Hz}.
