Q3// Power is supplied to a load resistor R from a three-phase zero-impedance supply of balanced sinusoidal
voltages using half-wave bridge circuit of Fig.2. The three diodes may be considered as ideal switches.
(a) Sketch the phase current waveform ia(ot) in phase-a with respect to the phase voltage Van(@t)=Vm sinot.
(b) Show that the rms value of the phase current is:
