please mark as the brainliest answer. .

Answer 2

The total potential will be 6.63 V

• When a diode is in reverse bias, the barrier potential is increased, so that the flow of the charges get reduced, and as a result, flow of the current will be decreased or will be 0.

• When a diode is in forward bias, the barrier potential is decreased, so that the flow of the charges get increased, and as a result, flow of the current will be increased.

Here, the built in voltage of the diode is = 0.63 V

The diode is reverse biased with a voltage of 6 V.

So, the total potential will increase, and it will be = (6 + 0.63) V

                                                                                 = 6.63 V

The total potential of the reversed diode will be 6.63 V.
