Question

A rectifier type AC voltmeter consists of a series resistance R, an ideal full-wave rectifier bridge and a PMMC instrument. The internal resistance and a full-scale deflection produced by a DC current are 100 Ω and 1 mA respectively. A voltage of 100 V (rms) is applied to the input terminals. The value of R required is _________ (a) 63.56 Ω (b) 89.83 Ω (c) 89.83 kΩ (d) 141.3 kΩ I have been asked this question in exam.

Answer 1

The correct answer is (c) 89.83 kΩ For explanation: VOAverage = 0.636 × \sqrt{2} Vrms = 0.8993 Vrms The deflection with AC is 0.8993 times that with DC for the same value of voltage V SAC = 0.8993 SDC SDC of a rectifier type instrument is \frac{1}{I_{fs}} where Ifs is the current required to produce full scale deflection, Ifs = 1 mA; Rm = 100 Ω; SDC = 10^3 Ω/V SAC = 0.8993 × 1000 = 899.3 Ω/V. Resistance of multiplier RS = SAC V – Rm – 2Rd, where Rd is the resistance of diode, for ideal diode Rd = 0 ∴ RS = 899.3 × 100 – 100 = 89.83 kΩ.
