reverse biased and disconnects the load (along with the capacitor) from the supply.

The
capacitor then discharges with the load current. Diode D does not become forward biased till the
input supply voltage becomes equal to the capacitor voltage in the next cycle at ωt = (2π + φ).
The same process repeats thereafter.

From the preceding discussion
