As we learnt in

Full wave rectifier -

It is type of rectification in which output is obtained for both the halves of a.c.

- wherein

Frequency of output is double to that of input

 

 In full wave rectifier the frequency of ripple is double to that of main frequency. 

Hence ripple frequency = 100 Hz

Correct option is 1.

 


Option 1)

100 Hz

This is the correct option.

Option 2)

70.7 Hz

This is an incorrect option.

Option 3)

50 Hz

This is an incorrect option.

Option 4)

25 Hz

This is an incorrect option.
