A moving coil ammeter and a moving iron ammeter are connected in series with a rectifier across 110V (r.m.s.) AC supply. The total resistance of the circuit in the conducting direction is 60 ohm and that in the reverse direction may be taken as infinity. Assuming the waveform of the supply voltage to be sinusoidal, calculate the readings in each ammeter

A clipper is a device that removes either the positive half (top half) or negative half (bottom half), or both positive and negative halves of the input AC signal. In other words, a clipper is a device that limits the positive amplitude or negative amplitude or both positive and negative amplitudes of the input AC signal. In some cases, a clipper removes a small portion of the positive half cycle or negative half cycle or both positive and negative half cycles. In the below circuit diagram, the positive half cycles are removed by using the series positive clipper. QUESTION: In your own opinion. Why do we need to clip a certain amount of voltage in positive or negative or on both sides? What is the benefit of that in our devices or circuits in doing such thing?
