16. (a) A full wave rectifier is fed from a transformer having a center tapped
secondary winding. The RMS voltage from either end of secondary to
center tap is 30V. If the diode forward resistance is 2 Ω and that of the
half secondary is 8 Ω , for a load of 1K Ω , determine the power delivered
to load, percentage regulation at full load, rectification efficiency and
transformer utility factor (TUF) of secondary. (15)
