Common-emitter amplifier — UPSC Physics Optional CSE 2021 Paper II

An n-p-n transistor with \beta = 49 is used in common-emitter amplifier mode with V_{cc} = 10\ \mathrm{V} and R_L = 2\mathrm{k}\Omega. If a 100\mathrm{k}\Omega resistor is connected between the collector and the base of the transistor, calculate the quiescent collector current. Assume V_{BE} = 0.
