MCQ
In a transistor the collector current is always less than the emitter current because
  • A
    Collector side is reverse biased and the emitter side is forward biased
  • A few charge carriers are lost in the base and only remaining ones reach the collector
  • C
    Collector being reverse biased, attracts less electrons
  • D
    Collector side is forward biased and emitter side is reverse biased

Answer

Correct option: B.
A few charge carriers are lost in the base and only remaining ones reach the collector
b
$I_E = I_B + I_C$
