    A triode valve has an amplification factor of 20 and its plate is given a potential of 300 V. What should be the grid voltage to reduce the plate- current to zero?

    A) 15 V    

    B)                                        8 V                         

    C)        25 V                      

    D)        12 V.

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                     To reduce the plate current to zero \[{{V}_{P}}\] should be reduced to zero. Hence for \[{{I}_{P}}=0.\]. \[\Delta {{V}_{P}}=0-300\] \[=-300V\] We know that amplification factor, \[\mu ={{\left( \frac{\Delta {{V}_{P}}}{\Delta {{V}_{G}}} \right)}_{\Delta {{I}_{P}}=cons\tan t}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\Delta {{V}_{G}}=\frac{\Delta {{V}_{P}}}{\mu }\] \[=-\frac{300}{20}\] \[=-15\] \[\therefore \]Required Grid voltage is - 15 V.
