Two ideal diodes are connected to a battery as shown in the circuit. The current supplied by the battery is

• A

  $0.75 \mathrm{~A}$
• B

  zero
• C

  $0.25 \mathrm{~A}$
• Correct answer
  D

  $0.5 \mathrm{~A}$

Solution

Here in circuit $D_1$ is forward bias and $D_2$ is reverse bias. Current will flow only in diode $D_1$ The current supplied by the battery $i=\frac{5}{10}=0.5 \mathrm{~A}$

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