A Zener diode is connected to a battery and a load as shown below: The currents I, I Z and I L are respectively
Options
- A12.5 mA, 7.5 mA, 5 mA
- B15 mA, 7.5 mA, 7.5 mA
- C12.5 mA, 5 mA, 7.5 mA
- D15 mA, 5 mA, 10 mA
Correct answer
A. 12.5 mA, 7.5 mA, 5 mA
Step-by-step solution
I L = V AB R L = 1 0 2 0 0 0 = 5 mA I = 6 0 - 1 0 4 0 0 0 = 5 0 4 0 0 0 = 1 2 · 5 mA I = I L + I Z ∴ I Z = I - I L = 7 · 5 mA Hence, 12.5 mA, 7.5 mA, 5 mA
