Show answer and solution
Answer: (d)
- A solar cell gives current without any applied bias; its I-V curve is drawn in the fourth quadrant (V positive, I negative).
- Here the axes are swapped (V vertical, I horizontal), so the same curve appears with V positive and I negative.
- So the answer is (d) Solar cell.
