In the given Fig., assuming the diodes to be ideal,

- D1 is forward biased and D2 is reverse biased and hence current flows from A to B
- D2 is forward biased and D1 is reverse biased and hence no current flows from B to A and vice versa.
- D1 and D2 are both forward biased and hence current flows from A to B.
- D1 and D2 are both reverse biased and hence no current flows from A to B and vice versa.
Answer
(A) D 1 is forward biased and D 2 is reverse biased and hence current flows from A to B
