Question

The figure shows two diagrams in which diode and resistance are connected. Out of the following statements which one is TRUE?

Diagram (a)

Diagram (b)

विकल्प

• diagram (a) forward biased and diagram (b) reverse biased

• diagram (a) and diagram (b) both are forward biased

• diagram (a) reverse biased and diagram (b) forward biased

• diagram (a) and diagram (b) both are reverse biased

Answer 1

diagram (a) reverse biased and diagram (b) forward biased

Explanation:

The anode in diagram (a) has a lower voltage than the cathode. As a result, it is skewed in the opposite direction. The anode in diagram (b) has a higher potential than the cathode. As a result, it is forward biassed.
