Answer:

Explanation:

A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), a process known as rectification. Rectifiers have many uses including as components of power supplies and as amplitude modulation detectors (envelope detectors) of radio signals. Rectifiers are most commonly made using solid state diodes but other type of components can be used when very high voltages or currents are involved. When only a single diode is used to rectify AC (by blocking the negative or positive portion of the waveform), the difference between the term diode and the term rectifier is simply one of usage. The term rectifier describes a diode that is being used to convert AC to DC. Most rectifier circuits contain a number of diodes in a specific arrangement to more efficiently convert AC power to DC power than is possible with only a single diode.

Pani-rosa [81]

<span>Even though the Sun has a greater mass than Earth, the Moon orbits Earth because it's closer to the Earth than to the Sun. Because of this proximity between the Earth and the Moon, the Earth has a stronger gravitational pull than the Sun does. Furthermore, the Earth's mass is 81 times that of the Moon, and so at this proximity, it is more than able to overpower what pull the Sun exerts on the Moon.</span>

Zielflug [23.3K]

Keep your lane position, and sound your horn while braking in a controlled manner. Sudden panic stops are not a good idea, as they could spook the animal, causing it to suddenly dart into the path of another vehicle.
