The circuit shown in following figure contains two diode D 1 and D 2 each with a forward resistance of 50 ohms and with infinite backward resistance. If the battery voltage is 6 V, the current through the 100 ohm resistance (in amperes) is

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
According to the given polarity, diode D 1 is forward biased while D 2 is reverse biased. Hence current will pass through D 1 only. So current
