JEE Main 2026 (4 Apr, Shift 2) Physics Q45: Given below…

Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R
Assertion A: A diode under reverse-biased condition provides very small current which is nearly independent of voltage until a critical limit at which the current increases drastically.
Reason R: Below the critical voltage limit, only majority charge carriers flow which increases drastically above critical voltage.
choose the correct answer from the options given below

Accepted Answer
