Question

The given circuit has two ideal diodes connected as shown in the figure below. The current flowing through the resistance R1 will be (A) 2.5 A (B) 10.0 A (C) 1.43 A (D) 3.13 A

The diode D1 will be be in reverse bias, so it will block the current and diode D2 will be in forward bias, so it will pass the current . i = (10/2+2) = 2.5 A

Q. The given circuit has two ideal diodes connected as shown in the figure below. The current flowing through the resistance $R_{1}$ will be

2.5 A

10.0 A

1.43 A

3.13 A

The diode $D_{1}$ will be be in reverse bias, so it will block the current and diode $D_{2}$ will be in forward bias, so it will pass the current .
$i = \frac{10}{2 + 2} = 2.5 A$
