Which of the following is not one of the steps or processes involved in a complete power supply system?

(Combining the outputs of the taps)..Filtering the DC output, Regulating the output, Transforming the AC voltage

A waveform across the load of a full-wave rectifier is pulsating direct current with half the peak voltage of the secondary because of the center-tap.

True

Batteries in series add voltages where batteries in parallel add currents.

True

If the waveform across a load resistor is observed to be half-wave pulsating direct current, the rectifier is classified as a ? rectifier.

B

A dual-voltage power supply is also called a ? .

Bipolar supply

A full-wave rectifier that does not use a center-tapped transformer and utilizes four diodes to provide full-wave rectification is called a ? rectifier.

Bridge

When connecting power supplies that convert AC to DC, note that the ? will determine the load polarity.

Diode polarity

A ? rectifier uses a center-tapped transformer secondary and two diodes.

Full wave

The AC input cycle is divided into two parts: the positive alternation and the negative alternation.

True
