Question: Problem 2 ( 2 0 pts ) : A pair of thyristors connected in inverse - parallel, as shown in Fig. 1 below, is used

Problem 2(20pts):
A pair of thyristors connected in inverse-parallel, as shown in Fig. 1 below, is used to supply adjustable voltage to a resistive load of R=10. If the 50 Hz supply voltage is vi=311.13sint and the thyristors are each triggered at an angle after their respective anode voltage zeros. Th1 turns on during the source positive half-cycle, while Th2 turns on during the source negative half-cycle
a) Sketch the load (output) voltage waveform for =45.
b) Find the r.m.s. value Vo of the load (output) voltage.
c) Find the r.m.s. value Io of the load (output) current.
d) If thyristor Th2 fails to conduct, how much would be the value of the average dc output voltage of the converter at =45.
