MCQ
Mark the correct options:
  • A
    A diode valve can be used as a rectifier.
  • B
    A triode valve can be used as a rectifier.
  • C
    A diode valve can be used as an amplifier.
  • D
    A triode valve can be used as an amplifier.

Answer

  1. A diode valve can be used as a rectifier.

  2. A triode valve can be used as a rectifier.

  1. A triode valve can be used as an amplifier.

Explanation:

A diode valve and a triode valve allow current to flow only in one direction. Since a rectifier is a device that converts alternating current (bi-directional) into direct current (uni-directional), a diode valve and a triode valve can be used as rectifiers. A triode valve can control its output in proportion to the input signal. That is, it can act as an amplifier, whereas a diode valve cannot control its output in proportion to the input signal. So, it cannot be use as an amplifier.
