In the following circuit diagram, the current through the battery is

In the following circuit diagram, the current through the battery is

Options

  1. A4A4A
  2. B3A3A
  3. C1A1A
  4. D2A2A

Correct answer

D. 2A2A

Step-by-step solution

From the figure, It is clear that diodes D1{D}_{1} and D3{D}_{3} are reverse biased, therefore they will not conduct any current and the resistance of 11Ω11Ω and 5Ω5Ω will be not in use. The diode D2{D}_{2} is forward biased, therefore the current flowing& through the diode D2{D}_{2} is same as the current through the battery.

In the following circuit diagram, the current through the battery is

On redrawing the circuit as& shown, we can obtain the value of current as

i=207+3=2Ai = \dfrac{20}{7 + 3} = 2A
