In the given circuit the current through zener diode is:

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

$V_{AB} = 10 V$ $∴ V_{BC} = 5 V$ , the current in $R_{1} = I_{1} = \frac{5}{500}$
$\Rightarrow I_{1} = 10 mA$ . Current in $R_{2} = I_{2} = \frac{10}{1500}$ $\Rightarrow I_{2} = \frac{20}{3} m A$

Current in zener diode = $I_{1} - I_{2} = (10 - \frac{20}{3}) mA = \frac{10}{3} mA$
