In the given circuit, the voltage across load resistance (RL) is:

Figure

  • Correct answer
    A
    8.75 V
  • B
     9.00 V
  • C
    8.50 V
  • D
    14.00 V

Solution

Figure

Both diodes are in forward bias. In forward bias, potential drop across Ge and Si will be 0.3 V & 0.7 V respectively.

Therefore, current in the circuit i=15-0.3-0.74×1000=3.5 mA

Required potential drop across RL, 
VL=iRL=3.5×10-3×2.5×1000 V

=8.75 V 

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
