Q: A light emitting diode (LED) has a voltage drop of 2 volt across it and passes a current of 10 mA when it operates with a 6 volt battery through a limiting resistor R. The value of R is

(a) 40 k Ω

(b) 4 kΩ

(c) 200 Ω

(d) 400 Ω

Ans: (d)
Sol: $\large R = \frac{6-2}{10 \times 10^{-3}}$

R = 400 Ω
