In the given circuits \((a)\),\((b)\) and \((c)\), the potential drop across the two p-n junctions are equal in:

- A Circuit \((b)\) only
- B Circuit \((c)\) only
- C Both circuits \((a)\) and \((c)\)
- D Circuit \((a)\) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Both circuits \((a)\) and \((c)\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In \((a)\) \(\&\) \((c)\) circuits, both the junctions are in same biasing conditions so offers equal resistances. Since both are in series, therefore equal potential will drop across the junction.
