Q)
An AC voltage of peak $20\;V$ is connected in series with a silicon diode and a load resistance of $500 \Omega$. The forward resistance of the diode is $10 \Omega$ and the barrier voltage is $0.7\;V$. Find the peak current through diode and the peak voltage across the load. What will happen to these values if the diode is assumed to be ideal?
