What will be the current flowing through the \(6 \mathrm{k} \Omega\) resistor in the circuit shown, where the breakdown voltage of the Zener is \(6 \mathrm{V} ?\)
- A \(\frac{2}{3} m A\)
- B \(1 \mathrm{mA}\)
- C \(10 \mathrm{mA}\)
- D \(\frac{3}{2} m A\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\frac{2}{3} m A\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In the given circuit, the zener diode is used as a voltage regulating device. The voltage across \(6 \mathrm{k} \Omega\) resistance is \((10-6) \mathrm{V}=4 \mathrm{V}\) Current through \(6 \mathrm{k} \Omega\) resistor,…
