Right Answer is:
Remove ripples from the rectified output

SOLUTION

We know that rectifiers are used to convert AC to DC, but not a pure DC. The output that is obtained from a rectifier is pulsating in nature, which basically means that it has a certain amount of AC component called the ripple. These ripple components are very much unwanted and undesirable in a rectifier circuit as they reduce the efficiency of AC to DC conversion. So, in order to remove these components, filters are used. A filter (capacitor-based filter) in a circuit takes this mixed input and produces a pure DC output, bypassing the AC component to earth / neutral.

In a rectifier circuit, the primary function of the filter is to

Control the DC level of the output voltage

Remove ripples from the rectified output

Minimize AC input variations

Suppress odd harmonics In the rectifier output
