    The current voltage relation of diode is given by \[I=\left( {{e}^{1000V/T}}-1 \right)mA,\]where the applied voltage V is in volts and the temperature T is in degree Kelvin. If a student makes an error measuring ± 0.01 V while measuring the current of 5 mA at 300 K, what will be the error in the value of current in mA?                     [JEE MAIN 2014]

    A) 0.5 mA

    B) 0.05 mA

    C) 0.2 mA

    D) 0.02 mA

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[I=\left( {{e}^{\frac{^{1000V}}{T}}}-1 \right)\]
    \[\frac{dI}{dV}=\frac{1000}{T}{{e}^{\frac{1000V}{T}}}\]
    \[dI=\left( \frac{1000}{T}{{e}^{\frac{1000V}{T}}} \right)dV\]          \[I=5MA\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[e\frac{1000V}{T}=6MA\]
    \[dI=\left( \frac{1000}{300} \right)(0.01)(6)=\frac{10}{50}=\frac{1}{5}\]
    \[dI=0.2mA\]
