//chapter9 //example9.19 //page165 // the waveform given in book is for understanding only. It is not required to solve the problem. Also it cannot be plotted in scilab unless Vm and Vdc are given. R=25 // ohm Rl=750 // ohm Vm=25.7 // V Vdc_dash=2*Vm/%pi Vdc=Vdc_dash*Rl/(R+Rl) printf("voltage across load is %.3f V plus a small ripple \n",Vdc) // the accurate answer is 15.833 V but in book it is given as 15.9 V
