JEE MAIN - Physics (2021 - 25th February Morning Shift - No. 14)

A 5V battery is connected across the points X and Y. Assume D1 and D2 to be normal silicon diodes. Find the current supplied by the battery if the +ve terminal of the battery is connected to point X.

$$ \sim $$ 0.5 A
$$ \sim $$ 1.5 A
$$ \sim $$ 0.43 A
$$ \sim $$ 0.86 A

Explanation

Since silicon diode is used so 0.7 Volt is drop across it, only D1 will conduct.

So current through cell,

I = $${{5 - 0.7} \over {10}}$$ = 0.43 A
