Question

Two junction diodes one of Germanium (Ge) and other of silicon (Si) are connected as shown in figure to a battery of emf 12 V and a load resistance 10 k Ω. The germanium diode conducts at 0.3 V and silicon diode at 0.7 V. When a current flows in the circuit, the potential of terminal Y will be(a) 12 V(b) 11 V(c) 11.3 V(d) 11.7 V

Answer 1

12 V
