The following diagram shows a Zener diode as a voltage regulator. The Zener diode is rated at \(V_z = 5~\text{V}\) and the desired current in a load is \(5~\text{mA}\). The unregulated voltage source can supply upto \(25~\text{V}\). Considering the Zener diode can withstand four times of the load current, the value of resistor \(R_S\) (shown in circuit) should be: (in \(\Omega\))

Given below are two statements: 
Assertion (A): A diode under reverse-biased condition provides very small current which is nearly independent of voltage until a critical limit at which the current increases drastically.
Reason (R): Below the critical voltage limit, only majority charge carries flow which increases drastically above critical voltage.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
