Step 1
Since it is a diode, the current flows from the anode (positive terminal) to the cathode (negative terminal). So, we can mark the direction of the current as flowing from the anode to the cathode. Show more…

(ii) For the circuit depicted in Figure 4.1, determine the voltage across the resistor and the current through the diode. Assume ideal diode behavior with a threshold voltage Vth = 0.7V. (iii) Consider the circuit depicted in Figure 4.2. Does current flow through the 2 ̐ resistor? If so, what is the magnitude of this current? Assume ideal diode behavior with a threshold voltage Vth = 0.7V.
