Accepted Answer

To determine the current through the battery in this circuit, we need to consider the equivalent resistance and the biasing of the components involved. $\$
Both components in the circuit are forward-biased. Given this, the equivalent resistance ($R_{	ext{eq}}$) is $10 \, \Omega$. $\$
The current ($i$) through the circuit can be calculated using Ohm's law: $\$
$ i = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{5 \, 	ext{V}}{10 \, \Omega} = 0.5 \, 	ext{A} $ $\$
Thus, the current through the battery is $0.5 \, 	ext{A}$. $\$
