1.	A single phase semiconverter has a freewheeling diode. If the firing angle is and the load is purely resistive, the periods of conduction and freewheeling respectively are
Answer» Freewheeling diode conducts only when load is inductive. If load is purely resistive free wheeling diode does not come into operation.
