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

  1. A zero
  2. B 0.25 A
  3. C 0.50 A
  4. D 0.75 A
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 0.25 A

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In given circuit, the diode \(\mathrm{D}_2\) is connected in reverse bias. Hence, no current flows through \(40 \Omega\) resistor.
\(\therefore \quad \mathrm{I}=\frac{\mathrm{V}}{\mathrm{R}}=\frac{10}{40}=0.25 \mathrm{~A}\)
