Homework Statement
Assume an ideal diode with ##V_t=0.6##v, find the potential differences across the diode V_ab and across the resistor V_bc as the forward bias voltage is varied from 0 to 10v. Hint: equivalent circuits may be useful

Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not really sure how to find the potential difference across the diode and resistor. From KVL I get ##V_0=V_{ab}+iR## although this doesn't seem useful since it's an equation with both of the quantities that I want. I'm pretty sure there's no potential difference across them until the voltage increases to 0.6V though.
