In a single phase full wave converter (M - 2 connection) feeding a highly inductive load, the firing angle for each thyristor is a in the respective half cycle. The period of conduction of each thyristor is
p - a
p
p + a
p - 2a
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Since conduction is from a to p + a, period of conduction is p in each half cycle.
