Please help me with this question.

A diode, a resistor, and a battery are connected in a series circuit. The diode is at a temperature for which kBT = 25.0 meV, and the saturation value I0 of the current is I0 = 1.00 mu A. The resistance of the resistor is R = 745 Q., and the battery maintains a constant potential difference of epsilon = 2.42 V between its terminals. epsilon - delta V = I0R(ee delta V/kBT - 1) where delta V is the voltage across the diode. To solve this transcendental equation for the voltage delta V, graph the left-hand side of the above equation and the right-hand side as functions of delta V and find the value of delta V at which the curves cross. Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. V Find the current I in the circuit. mA Find the ohmic resistance of the diode, defined as the ratio delat V/ I, at the voltage in part (b). ohm Find the dynamic resistance of the diode, which is defined as the derivative d( delta V)/dI, at the voltage in part (b). ohm
