Donavan Rowland · Answer 1

The transistor can be used as a power amplifier as the output voltage will be much larger than the input voltage because the PNP transistor will step up the current increasing the Voltage generated across the reverse biased and forward biased junctions.

Houston Holland · Answer 2

Here are the choices:

A. the output current will be much smaller than the input current.

B. the output voltage will be much larger than the input voltage.

C. the output voltage will be much smaller than the input voltage.

D. the output current will be much larger than the input current

The correct answer is letter B. the output voltage will be much larger than the input voltage.
