NEET 2024 Physics Diodes Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
Consider the following statements A and B and identify the correct answer:
A. For a solar-cell, the I⁻V characteristics lies in the IV quadrant of the given graph.
B. In a reverse biased pn junction diode, the current measured in (μA), is due to majority charge carriers.

A
Both A and B are correct.
B
Both A and B are incorrect.
C
A is correct but B is incorrect.
D
A is incorrect but B is correct.
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
