                                    -intrinsic semiconductor such as silicon atom
-doped with pentavalent atom such as phosphorous
- each pentavalent atom contribute one free electron

(i)     Bulb 12.2
(ii) 
-          Electron from n-type drift to p-n junction
-          Holes from p-type drift to p-n junction
At the junction electrons and holes combines to ensure continuous current flow. Bulb light up
(i) Ratio Np: Ns  =Vp:Vs
                            =240V:24V
                            =100    ( to get 24 V output)
(ii)type of core :Laminated soft iron core (reduce power loss due to eddy current in the core)
(iii)full wave rectification: (less power loss & continuous current)

Full wave rectification circuit diagram
Input signal – alternating current
               v
Output signal – full wave rectification

Why
-          To smoothen the current


How
-          When current increases in circuit capacitor stores charges
-          When current decreases in the circuit capacitor discharges (supply charges to the circuit)
Make the current flow more stable
