The given circuit has two ideal diodes connected as shown in figure below. Calculate the current flowing through the resistance `R_(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Diode `D_(1)` is reverse biased so, it will block the current and Diode `D_(2)` is forward biased, so it will pass the current.
Current in the circuit is
`I=(V)/(R_(s))=(10)/(4)=2.5 A`
`I=2.5 A`
