    The diode used in the circuit shown in the figure has a constant voltage drop of 0.5 V at all currents and maximum power rating of 100 m-W. What should be the value of the resistor R, connected in series with the diode, for obtaining maximum current I?

    A)  \[200\,\,\Omega \]                     

    B)  \[6.67\,\,\Omega \]

    C)  \[5\,\,\Omega \]            

    D)  \[1.5\,\,\Omega \]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Current in the circuit, \[I=\frac{P}{V}=\frac{100\,\,\times \,\,{{10}^{-}}^{3}}{0.5}\] \[=\,\,\,200\,\,\times \,\,1{{0}^{-\,3}}\,A\] Voltage across resistance R, \[\operatorname{V}=1.5 -0.5 =1.0 volt\] \[\therefore \,\, Resistance\,\,R=\,\,\frac{V'}{I}\,\,=\,\,\frac{1}{200\times {{10}^{-\,3}}}\,\]\[=\,\,\,50\,\,\Omega \]
