When a diode is foward biased it has a voltage drop of 0.5\; V. The safe unit of current through the diodes is 10\; mA. If a battery of emf is 1.5\; V is used in the circuit, the volume of minimum resistance (in ohms) to be connected in series with the diode so that the current doesn't exceed the safe limit is
