Assertion: When PN -junction is forward biased then motion of charge carriers at junction is due to diffusion. In reverse biasing. The cause of motion of charge is drifting. Reason: In the following circuit emitter is reverse biased and collector is forward biased.

In which case is the junction diode is not reverse bias-

Give three differences between forward bias and reverse bias.

Assertion: We can measure the potential barrier of a PN junction by putting a sensitive voltmeter across its terminals. Reason: The current through the PN junction is not same in forward and reversed bias.
