A2Vbattery is connected across AB as shown in the figure. The value of the current supplied by the battery when in first case battery's positive terminal is connected to A and in second case when positive terminal of battery is connected to B will respectively be:

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

When +ve polarity is connected to A

ThenD1is forward biased andD2is reversed biased i.e.



I1current throughD1=25=0.4 A

When +ve polarity is connected to B thenD2is forward biased andD1is reversed biased then



I2=210=0.2  A
