5
Explanation

$$i = {7 \over {35}} = {1 \over 5}A$$
$${i_1} = {{15} \over {90}} = {1 \over 6}A$$
$${i_2} = i - {i_1}$$
$${i_2} = {1 \over 5} - {1 \over 6}$$
$${i_2} = {1 \over {30}}A$$
Power across diode; P = V2 i2
$$P = 15 \times {1 \over {30}}$$
P = 0.5 W
$$ \therefore $$ P = 5 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$1 W
