The circuit contains two diodes each with a forward resistance of 50 Ω and with infinite reverse resistance. If the battery voltage is 6 V, the current through the 120 Ω resistance is _______ mA

Solution

In this circuit D1 will be forward bias and D2 will be revers bias.

There will be no current through D2 and R2

Apply KVL in circuit we get

+6-50i-130i-120i=0

i=6300 A=6300×1000 mA

20 mA
