In the given circuit,& The current through battery is

In the given circuit,& The current through battery is

In the given circuit,& The current through battery is

Options

  1. A0.5A0. 5A
  2. B1A1A
  3. C1.5A1. 5A
  4. D2.5A2. 5A

Correct answer

C. 1.5A1. 5A

Step-by-step solution

In the given circuit, diode D1{D}_{1} is reverse biased, so it will not conduct but D2,D3{D}_{2}, {D}_{3} are forward biased, so they will conduct, hence corresponding equivalent circuit. For the given circuit is

In the given circuit,& The current through battery is

Now, the equivalent resistance of the circuit is

Req=(515)×20(5+5)+20+203Ω{R}_{eq} = \dfrac{\left(515\right) \times 20}{\left(5 + 5\right) + 20} + \dfrac{20}{3}Ω

Current through battery, I=10V203Ω=1.5AI = \dfrac{10V}{\dfrac{20}{3}Ω} = 1. 5A
