In the figure shown, if the diode forward voltage drop is $0.2 \, V$, the voltage difference between $A$ and $B$ is (in $V$)

When a silicon $PN$ junction is in forward biased condition with a series resistance,it has a knee voltage of $0.6\, V$. The current flowing through it is $5\, mA$ when the $PN$ junction is connected to a $2.6\, V$ battery. The value of the series resistance is.....$\Omega$.

The circuit contains two diodes,each with a forward resistance of $50\, \Omega$ and an infinite reverse resistance. If the battery voltage is $6\, V$,the current through the $120\, \Omega$ resistance is $mA$.

In the following circuit,the reading in the ammeter is (in $mA$)

As per the given circuit,the value of current through the battery will be $\dots \; A$.
