A zener diode of voltage `V_(Z)(=6` volt) is used to maintain a constant voltage across a load resistance `R_(L)(=1000Omega)` by using a series resistance `R_(S)(+100Omega)`. If the emf or source is `E(=9V)`, clculate the value of current through series resistance, zener diode and load resistance. What is the power being dissipated in zener diode.
