उत्तर
Given:
Change in the base current, \[\delta I_b = (80 - 30) \mu \text{A}\]
Change in the collector current, \[\delta I_c = (3 . 5 - 1) \] mA
Thus,
\[\beta = \left( \frac{\delta l_c}{\delta l_b} \right) \text{at constant V}_{cc} \]
\[ \Rightarrow \beta = \frac{2 . 5 \times {10}^{- 3}}{50 \times {10}^{- 6}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow \beta = \frac{250}{50} = 50\]
