79. A common emitter amplifier has a voltage gain of $50$, an input impedance of $100 $ $\Omega$ and an output impedance of $200 $ $\Omega$. The power gain of the amplifier is

[2010, 2007]

(a) $500$

(b) $1000$

(c) $1250$

(d) $50$

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 79.(c)

Solution:

  1. (c) Power gain $=$ voltage gain $\times$ current gain

$=V_G \cdot I_G=\frac{V_0}{V_i} \cdot \frac{I_0}{I_i}$

$=\frac{V_0^{2}}{V_i^{2}} \cdot \frac{R_i}{R_0}=50 \times 50 \times \frac{100}{200}$

$=\frac{2500}{2}=1250$
