What is the maximum power that a p-n junction can dissipate without getting damaged?

AC or Dynamic Resistance

Maximum Power Rating (correct)

Breakdown Voltage

Maximum Forward Current

What is the difference between AC or Dynamic Resistance and DC or Static Resistance of a diode?

AC or Dynamic Resistance is the ratio of the dc voltage across the diode to the dc current flowing through it, while DC or Static Resistance is equal to the reciprocal of the slope of the characteristics at that point.

AC or Dynamic Resistance is the resistance that a diode offers when it is reverse-biased, while DC or Static Resistance is the resistance that a diode offers when it is forward-biased.

AC or Dynamic Resistance is the resistance that a diode offers when it is forward-biased, while DC or Static Resistance is the resistance that a diode offers when it is reverse-biased.
