Vedclass · Answer

(B) In the given circuit,the $P$-terminal of the diode is connected to $-5 	ext{ V}$ and the $N$-terminal is connected to $-2 	ext{ V}$ through a resistor.For a diode to be forward biased,the potential at the $P$-terminal must be higher than the potential at the $N$-terminal.Here,the potential at the $P$-terminal $(V_P = -5 	ext{ V})$ is less than the potential at the $N$-terminal $(V_N = -2 	ext{ V})$.Since $V_P In an ideal diode,no current flows in reverse bias. Therefore,the current in the circuit is zero.
