Consider the following statements (A) and (B) and identify the correct answer.

(A) A Zener diode is connected in reverse bias when used as a voltage regulator.

(B) The potential barrier of a p-n junction lies between 0.1 V and 0.3 V.

  1. A.(A) and (B) both are correct
  2. B.(A) and (B) both are incorrect
  3. C.(A) is correct and (B) is incorrect✓
  4. D.(A) is incorrect but (B) is correct

You have the answer. The worked solution — and why the other three were written — is part of a paid pack.
