Which harmonics is present in full bridge rectifire?

Since the output of the rectifier is a close approximation of a sawtooth waveform, then all harmonics starting at the second harmonic are present in the full wave bridge rectifier output.


How can you glow fuse tube light using bridge rectifire?

A fuse-based light is simply a regular light bulb in a different enclosure with a different design. To do this, you wouldn't need a bridge rectifier, unless your input was DC and needed to be converted to AC, which you couldn't just hook the bulb directly to the source power.


What is the rehation ship of the input amplitude of the voltage at input and out put in the half-wave rectifire?

A 120V AC signal (such as at a power socket) is a sine-wave with a peak amplitude of about 170V and -170V or 340V peak-to-peak. A half-wave rectifier is basically a single diode which will clip off one half of the cycle leaving the other with a slight reduction in voltage. A silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of about .7 (seven tenths) of a volt, so if the input signal is 170V peak (340V Peak-to-peak), the output would be about 169.3V peak.


What is the relationship of the input amplitude of the voltage at input and output in the half wave rectifire?

The input and output amplitudes should be (approximately) the same.The amplitude of a periodic waveform is defined to be the difference between its average (or reference) and "peak" value. In the United States, the electricity from a standard wall plug is a "120 V" sine wave. This means that relative to ground, the waveform is varying from about -170V to +170V (the "120" number is the RMS value), so the amplitude is 170V. If you use this as the input to a half-wave rectifier, the output will lose either the positive-going or negative going swings; the output will go, for example, from 0 to +170V. Measured from the 0V reference, the output amplitude is 170V.


What is full wave rectifire?

The full wave rectifier is a means of converting alternating current (ac) into direct current (dc). It is done with either the use of 2 diodes coming off a center tapped transformer, or by using a bridge rectifier, which conists of 4 diodes ganged together in a certain configuration. As it's name implies, it converts both the positive going and the negative going parts of the sign wave into useable dc, and therefore is more efficient than a half wave rectifier, which only converts 1/2 of the complete sign wave into useable dc.
