Which one of the following statements is correct about an ac-coupled common- emitter amplifier operating in the mid-band region?

In the opamp circuit shown, the Zener diodes Z1 and Z2 clamp the output voltage V_o to +5 V or -5 V. The switch S is intially closed and is opened at time t = 0

The time t = t_{1 (in seconds) at which Vo changes state is _____.}

An opamp has a finite open loop voltage gain of 100. Its input offset voltage V_ios (= +5mV) is modeled as shown in the circuit below. The amplifier is ideal in all other respects. V_input is 25 mV.

The output voltage (in millivolts) is ________.

A speech signal is sampled at 8 kHz and encoded into PCM format using 8 bits/sample. The PCM data is transmitted through a baseband channel via 4-level PAM. The minimum bandwidth (in kHz) required for transmission is _________.
