उत्तर
When a junction diode has an alternating voltage placed across it, only when the diode is forward-biased can current flow. The junction diode's ability to correct alternating current can be used. This is accomplished through the use of a rectifier circuit. It exhibits high resistance when reverse-biased and low resistance when forward-biased.
