Physics Question from JEE Main 2025 · 28 January, Shift 2

In the circuit shown, assuming the threshold voltage of the diode is negligibly small, then the voltage VABV_{AB} is correctly represented by:

Circuit diagram with an AC source on the left, a diode in the lower branch, resistor R in the right vertical branch, and output terminals A at top right and B at bottom right.Four waveform options for $$V_{AB}$$ versus time: positive half-wave pulses, sinusoidal AC wave, zero at all times, and negative half-wave pulses.
  • A

    positive half-wave rectified signal

  • B

    VABV_{AB} is an unrectified sinusoid, the same shape as the source voltage

  • C

    VABV_{AB} would be zero at all times

  • D

    negative half-wave rectified signal
