What is the current in the circuit shown below?

A

0 amp

B

`10^(-2)` amp

C

1 amp

D

`0.10` amp

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The potential of P-side is more negative that of N-side hence diode is in reverse biasing in reverse biasing it acts as open circuit, hence no current flows.
