A junction diode has a resistance of 25 ...

A junction diode has a resistance of 25 `Omega` when forward biased and 2500 `Omega` when reverse biased. What is the current in the diode, for the arrangement shown ?

A

`(1)/(15)A`

B

`(1)/(7)A`

C

`(1)/(25)A`

D

`(1)/(480)A`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Here, p - n junction is forward biased. Therefore, Current, `I=(V)/(r+R)=(5)/(25+10)=(1)/(7)A`
