Question

p-n junction in reverse bias behaves like
  1. an inductor.
  2. a condenser.
  3. an amplifier.
  4. an off switch.

A
a condenser.
B
an amplifier.
C
an off switch.
D
an inductor.
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is D an off switch.
In reverse bias, p-n junction diode opposes the flow of electrons through it. Hence, it behaves like an off switch.
