3.75 A
2.35 A
2 A
2.73 A

Explanation

As per diagram,

Diode D1 & D2 are in forward bias i.e. R = 30$$\Omega$$ whereas diode D3 is in reverse bias i.e. R = infinite $$\Rightarrow$$ Equivalent circuit will be

Applying KVL starting from point A

JEE Main 2021 (Online) 1st September Evening Shift Physics - Semiconductor Question 88 English Explanation
$$ - \left( {{{{I_1}} \over 2}} \right) \times 30 - \left( {{{{I_1}} \over 2}} \right) \times 130 - {I_1} \times 20 + 200 = 0$$

$$\Rightarrow$$ $$-$$100 I1 + 200 = 0

I1 = 2

Option (c)
