The $I-V$ characteristics of an electronic device are shown in the figure. The device is:

In the given circuit,the current through the Zener Diode is close to.......$mA$.

$A$ Zener diode with voltage $V_z = 6 \ V$ is used to maintain a constant voltage across a load resistance $R_L = 1000 \ \Omega$. $A$ series resistor $R_s = 100 \ \Omega$ is used. If the source $e.m.f$ is $E = 9 \ V$,then the power dissipated in the Zener diode is .......... $W$.

The reading of the ammeter in the following circuit will be in $mA$.

When a Zener diode is used as a regulator with a Zener voltage of $10 \, V$, nearly five times the load current passes through the Zener diode. What should be the series resistance for the Zener diode if the load resistance is $2 \, k\Omega$ and the unregulated voltage supplied is $16 \, V$?

An ideal Zener diode with a breakdown voltage of $3 \text{ V}$ is reverse-biased with an input voltage $V_i = 5 \text{ V}$. The magnitude of the voltage difference between points $B$ and $A$ is: (in $\text{ V}$)
