The circuit shown in the figure contains two diodes each with a forward resistance of 50 `Omega` and with infinite backward resistance. If the battery is 6 V, the current through the 100 `Omega` resistance (in ampere) is

A

zero

B

0.02

C

0.03

D

0.036

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
In circuit the upper diode junction is forward biased and the lower diode junction is reverse biased. Thus, there will be no conduction across lower diode junction. Now the total resistance of circuit
`=100+150+50=300Omega`
Current in `100Omega=(6)/(300)=0.02A`
