A single phase half wave converter is used to charge a battery of 50 V. The thyristor is continuously fired by dc signal. Input voltage is v = Vm sin ωt. The thyristor will conduct
from 0 to 180°
when v > 50 V
from 0 to 90°
When v < 50 V
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Thyristor can conduct only when it is forward biased. This occurs only when v > 50 V.
