A Zener diode is used to obtain a constant voltage. If the applied voltage \(V\) changes, then:
(\( V\) is more than Zener voltage)
               

1. \(i_{1}\) and \(i_{2}\) change.
2. \(i_{2}\) and \( V_{0}\) change and \(i_{3}\) remain constant.
3. \(i_{2}\) and \(V_{0}\) don't change while \(i_{3}\) changes.
4. \(i_{3}\) and \( V_{0}\) don't change while \(i_{2}\) changes.
