Two amplifiers are connected one after the other in series (cascaded). The first amplifier has a voltage gain of 10 and the second has a voltage gain of 20 . If the input signal is \(0.01 \mathrm{~V}\), what is the output AC signal?

  1. A \(1.5 \mathrm{~V}\)
  2. B \(2 \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C \(2.5 \mathrm{~V}\)
  4. D \(3.0 \mathrm{~V}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Voltage gain of first amplifier, \[ A_{1}=10 \] Voltage gain of second amplifier, \[ A_{2}=20 \] Input signal voltage, \[ V_{i}=0.01 \mathrm{~V} \] Total voltage gain, when two amplifiers are connected in series (cascaded), is given as \[ A=A_{1} A_{2}=10 \times 20=200 \] We…
