The circuit shown in following figure contains two diode `D_(1)` and `D_(2)` each with a forward resistance of `50 ohm` and with infinite backward resistance. If the battery voltage is `6V`, the current through the `100` ohm resistance (in amperes) is

A

zero

B

`0.02`

C

`0.03`

D

`0.036`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Accroding to the given polarity, diode `D_(1)` is forward biased while `D_(2)` is reverse biased. Hence current will pass through `D_(1)` only.
so current `i=6/((150+50+100))=0.02 A`
