Capacitor Addition in Rectifier Circuit: Impact on Waveform and Explanation

[PhysicStud01]

Homework Statement

Connecting a capacitor in parallel in a rectifier circuit gives the following graph

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

What effect will, adding a second capacitor in parallel with the first one and the resistor, on the graph? COuld you explain why it will have the effect?

 

[CWatters]

That's not an attempt at a solution.

Do you understand why adding the first capacitor changes the waveform?

What effect will, adding a second capacitor in parallel with the first one and the resistor, on the graph? COuld you explain why it will have the effect?

If the capacitor is made, let's say, 10 times greater, what changes in the waveform will that be expected to bring about?

You have to make an attempt at answering questions you post to PF.
