In this question, statement of Assertion is followed by a statement of Reason.
Assertion: The value of current through p - n junction in the given figure will be 10 mA.
Reason: In the above figure, p‐side is at higher potential than n‐side. [2008]
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
The 
− − side of p − − n junction is taken at higher potential than 
− − side so, p − − n junction is forward biased. Taking its resistance to be zero and applying Ohm’s law.
