What is the meaning of trouble if any ? please explain.

Low Resistance in both directions. Normally in forward biased diode shows low resistance and in reverse bias shows high resistance.

The diode is short circuited, it shows zero resistance.

Pradeep said:   1 decade ago
Where it is mentioned that the diode is forward biased?

Ideal means?

The answer is option C because the output is not correct when in the circuitry some of the problems such as the connection are short.

What is meant by diode? What is the main application of diode?

Suvarna said:   7 years ago
When the diode is forward bias it is short circuited.

Ch Mydhili said:   5 years ago
It is observed to test the working condition of the diode.

Right, thanks @Palkaushil.
