Consider a p-n junction diode which has a potential drop of 0.5 V which is to be taken independent of current (under forward bias). If we want to use 1.5 V cell to forward bias the diode then what should be the value of resister (in Ω) used in series with the diode so that current may not exceed 10 mA, and hence may work safely.

1R + 0.5 = 1.5
1R = 1
R = 1/10 = 100Ω
