Assuming the diodes to be of silicon with forward resistance zero, the current I in the following circuit is

A

`0`

B

`9.65` mA

C

`10` mA

D

`10.36` mA

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Upper diode is in FB and lower diode is in RB
`I=(20-0.7)/(2xx10^(3))=9.65mA`
[ As voltage drop across Si diode = `0.7` V ]
