MCQ
Figure shows a circuit in which three identical diodes are used . Each diode has forward resistance of $20\,\Omega $ and infinite backward resistance. Resistors $R_1 = R_2 = R_3 = 50\,\Omega.$ Battery voltage is $6\,V.$ The current through $R_3$ is.....$mA$
  • $50$
  • B
    $100$
  • C
    $60$
  • D
    $25$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$50$
a
Here, diodes $D_1$ and $D_2$ are forward biased and $D_3$ is reverse biased. Therefore current through $R_3$

$i = \frac{V}{{R'}} = \frac{6}{{120}} = \frac{1}{{20}}A = 50\,mA$
