AIEEE 2006

A solid which is not transparent to visible light and whose conductivity increases with temperature is formed by
A
Ionic bonding
B
Covalent bonding
C
Vander Waals bonding
D
Metallic bonding

Explanation

Van der Waal's bonding is attributed to the attractive forces between molecules of a liquid. The conductivity of semiconductors (covalent bonding) and insulators (ionic bonding) increases with increase in temperature while that of metals (metallic bonding) decreases.

If the ratio of the concentration of electrons to that of holes in a semiconductor is ${7 \over 5}$ and the ratio of currents is ${7 \over 4},$ then what is the ratio of their drift velocities?
A
${5 \over 8}$
B
${4 \over 5}$
C
${5 \over 4}$
D
${4 \over 7}$

Explanation

${{{I_e}} \over {{I_h}}} = {{n{}_eeA{v_e}} \over {n{}_heA{v_h}}}$

$\Rightarrow {7 \over 4} = {7 \over 5} \times {{{v_e}} \over {{v_h}}}$

$\Rightarrow {{{v_e}} \over {{v_h}}} = {5 \over 4}$

In a common base mode of a transistor, the collector current is $5.488$ $mA$ for an emitter current of $5.60mA.$ The value of the base current amplification factor $\left( \beta \right)$ will be
A
$49$
B
$50$
C
$51$
D
$48$

Explanation

${I_C} = 5.488\,mA,\,\,{I_e} = 5.6\,mA,\,{I_B} = {I_E} - {I_C}$

$\beta = {{{I_c}} \over {{I_B}}} = {{5.488} \over {5.6 - 5.485}} = 49$

AIEEE 2005

In a common base amplifier, the phase difference between the input signal voltage and output voltage is
A
$\pi$
B
${\pi \over 4}$
C
${\pi \over 2}$
D
$0$

Explanation

Zero; In common base amplifier circuit, input and output voltage are in the same phase.
