Question

If the diode is ideal, then fine out the output waveform. 

This image depicts an electronic circuit diagram for a half-wave rectifier. Here's a detailed explanation:

**Components and Symbols:**

- **Diode:** Positioned in the middle of the circuit, allows current to pass in one direction.
- **Resistor:** A 1.0 kΩ resistor is connected in series with the diode.
- **Ground:** The symbol at the bottom represents the ground connection.
- **Voltage Source (Vin):** Depicted by a sinusoidal waveform on the left, with peak values at +10 V, 0 V, and -10 V.

**Circuit Description:**

- The **input voltage (Vin)** is an AC signal that oscillates between +10 V and -10 V.
- As the AC voltage enters the circuit, the **diode** only allows the positive half of the AC signal to pass through, blocking the negative half.
- The current that passes through the diode then flows through the **resistor (1.0 kΩ)**.
- The **output voltage (Vout)** is taken across the resistor, resulting in a pulsating DC voltage.

This configuration is commonly used to convert AC signals into DC signals for power supplies, with applications across various electronics.
