$A$ silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of $1.2\, V$ for a forward $DC$ current of $100\, mA$. It has a reverse current of $1\times10^{-6}\, A$ for a reverse voltage of $10\, V$. The bulk and reverse resistances of the diode are:

The junction diode in the following circuit requires a minimum current of $1 \, mA$ to be above the knee point $(0.7 \, V)$ of its $I-V$ characteristic curve. The voltage across the diode is independent of current above the knee point. If $V_B = 5 \, V$,then the maximum value of $R$ so that the voltage is above the knee point will be:
