MCQ
Zener diode works on:
- AZero bias
- ✓Reverse bias
- CForward bias
- DInfinite bias
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Reverse bias
We know that zener diode works on the reverse bias. When the reverse bias is equal to the break$-$down voltage, the voltage across the zener remains almost constant and the current increases rapidly.

The figure shows the intensity-wavelength relations of $X -$rays coming from two different Coolidge tubes. The solid curve represents the relation for the tube A in which the potential difference between the target and the filament is $V_A$ and the atomic number of the target material is $Z_A$. These quantities are $V_B$ and $Z_B$ for the other tube. Then:
