    In Figure, assuming the diodes to be ideal,

    A) \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{1}}\] is forward biased and \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{2}}\] is reverse biased and hence current flows from A to B

    B) \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{2}}\] is forward biased and \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{1}}\] is reverse biased and hence no current flows from B to A and vice versa.

    C) \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{1}}\] and \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{2}}\] are both forward biased and hence current flows from A to B.

    D) \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{1}}\] and \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{2}}\] are both reverse biased and hence no current flows from A to B and vice versa.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Option [b] is correct Explanation: In circuit, A is at -10 V and B is at 0 V. So B is positive than A. So\[{{\operatorname{D}}_{2}}\] is in forward bias and \[{{\operatorname{D}}_{1}}\] is in reverse bias, so no current flows from A to B or B to A.
