JEE MAIN - Physics (2020 - 3rd September Morning Slot - No. 12)

When a diode is forward biased, it has a voltage drop of 0.5 V. The safe limit of current through the diode is 10 mA. If a battery of emf 1.5 V is used in the circuit, the value of minimum resistance to be connected in series with the diode so that the current does not exceed the safe limit is
50 $$\Omega $$
200 $$\Omega $$
300 $$\Omega $$
100 $$\Omega $$

Explanation

JEE Main 2020 (Online) 3rd September Morning Slot Physics - Semiconductor Question 137 English Explanation

1.5 – 0.5 – R $$ \times $$ 10–2 = 0

$$ \Rightarrow $$ R = 100 $$\Omega $$
