Question

The reading of the ammeter for a silicon diode in the given circuit is:



a) 15 mA
b) 11.5 mA
c) 13.5 mA
d) 0

Answer 1

Answer:

♠ The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Silicon diode is in forward bias. Hence, potential barrier across the diode is

ΔV = 0.7 Volts

I = (V - ΔV)/R

= (3 - 0.7)/200

= 2.3/200

✏  = 11.5 mA

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Hey it's simple the answer is B
