Answer:

Correct Answer: 69. (a)

Solution:

  1. (a) Voltage gain $(A_V)=\frac{V _{\text{out }}}{V _{\text{in }}}=\frac{I _{\text{out }}}{I _{\text{in }}} \times \frac{R _{\text{out }}}{R _{\text{in }}}$

$A_V=\frac{2 \times 10^{-3}}{40 \times 10^{-6}} \times \frac{4 \times 10^{3}}{100}=2 \times 100=2000$

In a common-emitter amplifier, the voltage signal obtained across the collector and the emitter is $180^{\circ}$ out of phase with the input voltage signal applied across the base and the emitter. This is indicated in the equation for $A_V$ by its negative sign.
