A transistor is used in an amplifier circuit in common emitter mode. If the base current changes by 100 $$\mu$$A, it brings a change of 10 mA in collector current. If the load resistance is 2 k$$\Omega$$ and input resistance is 1 k$$\Omega$$, the value of power gain is x $$\times$$ 10⁴. The value of x is _____________.
