The value of a of a transistor is_____________?
Correct answer: B. less than 1
- A. more than 1
- B. less than 1
- C. 1
- D. none of the above
Explanation
The symbol is evidently alpha, the common-base current gain, defined as collector current divided by emitter current. Since collector current is slightly less than emitter current, alpha is less than 1.
