Question:
(i) Name the type of a diode whose characteristics are shown in the figure (a) and in the figure (b)
(ii) What does the point P in the figure (a) represent?
(iii) What does the points P and Q in the figure (b) represent?
Solution:
(i) Figure a) represents the characteristics of Zener diode and figure b) represents the solar cell.
(ii) Figure a) point P is the representation of Zener breakdown voltage.
(iii) Figure b) point Q is the representation of zero voltage and negative current.
