Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(7\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(I _{\varepsilon}= I _{ C }+ I _{ B }\)

\(\Rightarrow \Delta I _{\varepsilon}=\Delta I _{ C }+\Delta I _{ B }\)

\(4 mA =3.5 mA +\Delta I _{ B }\)

\(\Rightarrow \Delta I _{ B }=0.5 mA\)

\(\Rightarrow \beta=\frac{\Delta I _{ C }}{\Delta I _{ B }}\)

\(\beta=\frac{3.5}{0.5}\)

\(\Rightarrow \beta=7\)
