We know that, an ideal diode operates only in forward bias condition and does not conduct any current in reverse biased condition.
So, the current will flow only for the upper half cycle of input voltage and the output signal will be as shown:
Solution

The current will flow through

R_{L}

when the diode is forward biased.
