Question: In the circuit, if the forward voltage drop for the diode is 0.5V, the current will be
[UPSEAT 2003]
Options:
A) 3.4 mA
B) 2 mA
C) 2.5 mA
D) 3 mA
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
The voltage drop across resistance = 8 - 0.5 = 7.5 V
Current $ i=\frac{7.5}{2.2\times 10^{3}}=3.4mA $
