In a Zener diode,

$A$ Zener diode of power rating $2 \, W$ is to be used as a voltage regulator. If the Zener diode has a breakdown voltage of $10 \, V$ and it has to regulate an unregulated input voltage that fluctuates between $6 \, V$ and $14 \, V$, the value of $R_s$ for safe operation should be $.... \Omega$.

Zener breakdown in a semiconductor diode occurs when

In the given circuit,the value of current $I_{L}$ will be in $mA$. (When $R_{L} = 1 \, k\Omega$)

$A$ $5.0 \, V$ stabilized power supply is required to be designed using a $12 \, V$ $DC$ power supply as an input source. The maximum power rating of the zener diode is $2.0 \, W$. The minimum value of resistance $R_{s}$ in $\Omega$ connected in series with the zener diode will be (in $.5$)

Consider the following statements $A$ and $B$ and identify the correct choice of the given answers.
Statement $A$: The potential barrier of a $PN$ junction lies between $0.1 \, V$ to $0.3 \, V$ approximately.
Statement $B$: $A$ Zener diode is always connected in reverse bias.
