The circuit shown in the figure acts as

If a p-n junction diode is not connected in a circuit then

The junction diode shown in figure is ideal. Find the current in the circuit

Assertion : When two semi conductor of p and n type are brought in contact, they form p-n junction which act like a rectifier. Reason : A rectifier is used to convent alternating current into direct current.

In a p- n junction diode not connected to any circuit,
