Questions  

From the given circuit, choose the correct option for the closest value of current through Zener diode.

a
0.0 mA
b
6.7 mA
c
6.0 mA
d
4.0 mA

detailed solution

Correct option is A

If we consider break down in zener diode, then potential across R3 will be 10 V  and that across R1  will be 2 V. So current in R3 will be i3=101500=2300A and current in R1 will be i1=2500A⇒i1
