The reverse breakdown voltage for a silicon diode is $6 \ V$ for a particular doping concentration and the forward bias voltage drop is $0.3 \ V$. Find the approximate current through the battery in the given circuit in $Amp$.

Current $I$ through a given $p-n$ junction when a voltage $V$ is applied across it is given by $I = I_0 \left( e^{\frac{V}{2 V_T}} - 1 \right)$,where $I_0$ and $V_T$ are constants. If $r_d(I)$ is the dynamic resistance of the junction,then $r_d(1000 I_0) = \alpha r_d(10 I_0)$,where $\alpha$ is approximately equal to
