प्रश्न
If the resistance R1 is increased (Figure), how will the readings of the ammeter and voltmeter change?

उत्तर
Let us redraw the circuit diagram to find the change in reading of the ammeter and voltmeter.
So, `I_BR_1 + V_(BE) = V_(BB)`
Base current, `I_B = (V_(BB) - V_(BE))/R_1`
`I_B ∝ 1/R_1`
So, R1 is increased, IB is decreased.
Now, the current in the ammeter is collector current IC.
IC = βIB as IB is decreased, IC is also decreased and the reading of the voltmeter and ammeter also decreased.

LED is a heavily doped P-N junction which under forward bias emits spontaneous radiation. When it is forward-biased, due to recombination of holes and electrons at the junction, energy is released in the form of photons. In the case of Si and Ge diode, the energy released in recombination lies in the infrared region. LEDs that can emit red, yellow, orange, green and blue light are commercially available. The semiconductor used for fabrication of visible LEDs must at least have a band gap of 1.8 eV. The compound semiconductor Gallium Arsenide – Phosphide is used for making LEDs of different colours.
