Question:

Two ideal diodes are connected to a battery as shown in the circuit. The current supplied by the battery is

Options:

0.75 A

zero

0.25 A

0.5 A

Correct Answer:

0.5 A

Explanation:

Here $D_1$ is in forward bias and $D_2$ is in reverse bias so, $D_1$ will conduct and $D_2$ will not conduct.

Thus, no current will flow through DC.

$I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}Amp.$
