Zener breakdown takes place if

In the following circuit,the current flowing through the Zener diode is (in $\text{ mA}$)

What happens during the regulation action of a Zener diode?

$A$ Zener diode voltage regulator operated in the range $120 \, V - 180 \, V$ produces a constant supply of $110 \, V$ and $250 \, mA$ to the load. If the maximum current is equally shared between the load and the Zener diode, then the values of load resistance $(R_L)$ and series resistance $(R_S)$ are respectively

Zener breakdown in a semiconductor diode occurs when

Take the breakdown voltage of the zener diode used in the given circuit as $6\, V$. For the input voltage shown in the figure below, the time variation of the output voltage is: (Graphs drawn are schematic and not to scale)
