In an unbiased $p-n$ junction:

Find the magnitude of current in the given circuit. (in $A$)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: $A$ diode under reverse-biased condition provides very small current which is nearly independent of voltage until a critical limit at which the current increases drastically.
Reason $R$: Below the critical voltage limit, only majority charge carriers flow which increases drastically above critical voltage.

The following table provides the set of values of $V$ and $I$ obtained for a given diode. Let the characteristics be nearly linear. Over this range,the forward and reverse bias resistance of the given diode respectively are:
Condition $V$ $I$
Forward biasing $2.0 \, V$ $60 \, mA$
Forward biasing $2.4 \, V$ $80 \, mA$
Reverse biasing $0 \, V$ $0 \, \mu A$
Reverse biasing $-2 \, V$ $-0.25 \, \mu A$
