In a photoelectric experiment, the wavelength of the light incident on a metal is changed from 300nm300 \mathrm{nm}300nm to 400nm400 \mathrm{nm}400nm. The decrease in the stopping potential is close to : (hce=1240nm−V)\left(\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\mathrm{e}}=1240 \mathrm{nm}-\mathrm{V}\right)(ehc​=1240nm−V)

The following diagram shows a Zener diode as a voltage regulator. The Zener diode is rated at $V_{z}=5 \mathrm{~V}$ and the desired current in load is 5 mA. The unregulated voltage source can supply upto 25 V. Considering the Zener diode can withstand four times of the load current, the value of resistor $R_{S}$ (shown in circuit) should be $\_\_\_\_$ $\Omega$. ![JEE Main 2026 Physics, Semiconductors — question figure](https://prepforbharat.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/exam/615f0e999476412f48314daf/Physics/images/Semiconductors/698a0b35c573c2d03372efcc/question_1__q_698a0b35c573c2d03372efcc__cdn-question-pool.getmarks.app__23S1_q_30_1__216b0f1417_final_ppt_sync.png)
