Detailed Solution

As 10 kilo ohm is in parallel with Zener then voltage and current across it is constant and the current through the load is 4010×103=4 mA

Minimum potential drop across 5 kilo ohm resistor is 70 - 40 = 30 V and current is 305×103=6 mA

current through Zener is 6 - 4 = 2 mA

maximum voltage drop across the 5 Kilo ohm resistor is 110 - 40 = 70 V

maximum current 705×103=14 mA maximum current through Zener 14-4=10 mA
