In an \(n-p-n\) transistor, \(95 \%\) of emitted electrons reach the collector. If the base current is \(2 \mathrm{~mA}\), then collector current is

  1. A 19 mA
  2. B 38 mA
  3. C 9.5 mA
  4. D 48 mA
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 38 mA

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, base current in \(n-p-n\) transistor, \(I_B=2 \mathrm{~mA}=2 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~A}\) Since, \(95 \%\) of emitted electrons reach the collector, hence Collector current, \(I_C=95 \%\) of \(I_E \Rightarrow I_C=0.95 I_E \Rightarrow I_E=\frac{I_C}{0.95}\)...(i) But we…
