A p-n junction diode is connected in a series circuit with a battery (internal resistance \(0.5\) \(\Omega\))  and a \(5\) \(\Omega\) resistance. A current is found to pass through the circuit. If the polarity of the battery is reversed, the current drops to almost zero. This is because the resistance in the circuit is:
1. \(5\) \(\Omega\)
2. \(5.5\) \(\Omega\)
3. \(10\) \(\Omega\)
4. infinite
