No. By Kirchoff's Current Law, components in series all see the same current.

What is the current of a circuit if the voltage is 10V with a 1.2K Resistor and a diode?
you should specify: - circuit topology, I assume a series connection. - diode allows current flow? It depends how it's connected - diode forward voltage drop value if diode is in forward conduction, you have VR=10V - VDIODE and, thus, I = VR/R=(10-Vdiode)/1200.
Why is a resistance usually connected in series with zener diode?
To drop the unwanted voltage.
How does a diode respond when a current source is connected?
The current will flow in one direction only. That direction is indicated by, usually, a ring around one end of the diode. The current will flow from the unmarked end to the marked end.
What is the difference between series and parallel diodes?
Connecting diodes in series:Connecting diodes in series will increase the forward voltage of the resultant diode.Connecting diodes in series will cause an open circuit until peak inverse voltage (smallest diode) is applied on total resultant.Connecting diodes in parallel:Connecting diodes in parallel will increase the current carrying capacity of the diode.Connecting diodes in parallel will not get you a resultant diode conduction in both sides.
What is the supply for a diode?
The diode voltage drop is 0.7 volts, so you need that much to turn it on. Current is controlled by a resistor in series.
What will happens if zener diode and resistance are connected in parallel?
If diode is connected in series then current will flow only in one direction. ie. Current flow occurs only when diode is forward biased. ANSWER: It depends are the diodes are connected in series if they are back to back no current will flow if connected in the forward conduction mode then they will conduct.
What is the leakage current of zener diode?
The leakage current of a (zener) diode is the current that leaks when a diode is connected in reverse biased.
What is leakage current of zener diode?
The leakage current of a (zener) diode is the current that leaks when a diode is connected in reverse biased.
Why resistance is connected in series with P-N junction diode?
A resistance is connected in series with p-n junction of diodes to limit the number of electrons that flow across the junction.

What are devices are connected so that there is only one one path for current to follow?
diode

If three 18volt zener diode where connected in series offers a breakdown potential of?
18 V

What is blocking diode?
any diode if connected to where the anode is tie to a negative potential will block that voltage. Up to the limit of the breakdown potential of the diode whereby avalanche current will destroy the diode unless current limited
