Average Output Voltage Vdc of Full Wave Rectifier

[McMurry]

Homework Statement

The Vdc of Full Wave Rectifier (with diode) with midpoint configuration has been found to be
2Vm/(pi) and Vrms = Vm/sqrt(2)

How about the Vdc and Vrms value for the full wave rectifier but with bridge configuration.
The difference is the the peak inverse voltage across the diode is Vm instead of 2Vm for midpoint configuration.

Therefore, for bridge configuration,
Vdc = Vm/(pi)
and
Vrms = Vm/2

Am I correct?

Thanks in advance.

I recommend looking at the appendix of this old National Semiconductor Audio Handbook. It has a nice treatment of rectifiers, especially the voltage vs. load vs. filter performance.
