Outline a method for solving a circuit that contains a single nonlinear element plus resistors, dc voltage sources, and dc current sources, given the volt–ampere characteristic of the nonlinear device.

Consider the full-wave rectifier circuit shown below, where• vS(t) is a sinusoidal signal with a peak value (Vs = 5 V).• Diodes are modelled using constant voltage model with VDO = 0.7 V• The ac line voltage has an rms value of 120 V and a frequency (f) = 60 Hza) Calculate the transformer turns ratio.  b) Plot in the same graph signal vS(t) and the output signal vO(t) versus time (t) (show all details including amplitudes, time instances, etc.) c) Calculate the rms value of the output signal vO(t). (hint: sin2(x) = 0.5(1- cos(2x)))  d) If a capacitor C=3.58 F is connected across R = 10 k, repeat (b) in a new graph

A three-phase rectifier has a purely resistive load of R. If the rectifier delivers Idc = 50A at an out voltage of Vdc = 20V, determine a. The peak inverse voltage of each diode   b. Peak current through a diode  c. The value of R  d. The power factor  e. The VA rating of the transformer.
