    The amplification factor of a triode value is 15. If the grid voltage is changed by 0.3 V, the change in plate voltage in order to keep the plate current constant (in volts) is:

    A) 50 V                                      

    B) 0.002 V

    C) 4.5 V                                     

    D) 0.02 V

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The ratio of increase in plate potential (while grid potential is kept constant) to the increase in grid potential (while plate potential is kept constant) for a definite increase in plate current is called the amplification factor of the triode value. \[\therefore \]   \[\mu =\frac{\Delta {{V}_{P}}}{\Delta {{V}_{g}}}\] Putting the numerical values from the question, we have \[\mu =15,\,\Delta {{V}_{g}}=0.3\,V\] \[\therefore \]     \[\Delta {{V}_{P}}=15\times 0.3=4.5\,V\]
