Write the formula and definition of dynamic resistance and also state their approximate values for forward bias and reverse bias.

The junction diode in the following circuit requires a minimum current of $1 \, mA$ to be above the knee point $(0.7 \, V)$ of its $I-V$ characteristic curve. The voltage across the diode is independent of current above the knee point. If $V_B = 5 \, V$,then the maximum value of $R$ so that the voltage is above the knee point will be:

$A$ $p-n$ junction diode is reverse biased with a voltage of $8 \, V$. If the resistance of the diode is $4 \times 10^7 \, \Omega$, then the reverse saturation current is: (in $ \, \mu A$)

Find the current $I$ in the circuit in $amp$.

In the circuit, all three diodes $D_1, D_2, D_3$ have a forward resistance of $50 \text{ } \Omega$ each and infinite backward resistance. If the battery voltage is $5 \text{ V}$, find the current through the $100 \text{ } \Omega$ resistance. (in $\text{mA}$)
