Solution

In a positive clipper, the diode conducts when Vin > Vref. This is because in a positive clipper, the positive half cycles of the input signal are "clipped" off or removed. This happens when the input voltage (Vin) is greater than the reference voltage (Vref). When Vin > Vref, the diode becomes forward-biased and starts conducting, allowing current to flow through it. This results in the output voltage being limited to the reference voltage, effectively clipping the positive peaks of the input signal.
