A load of R = 60 Ω is fed from 1phase, 230 V, 50 Hz supply through a step-up transformer & than a diode. The transformer turns ratio = 2. The power delivered to the load is

Correct Answer: 714 Watts
P = Vo2/R Vo = Vm/π AC supplied to the rectifier is 2 x 230 = 460 V (rms) Therefore, Vo = √2 x 460 / π = 207.04 P = 714.43 W.
