SOLUTIONS
Sol. 1

Option (B) is correct.

For the given ideal op-amp, negative terminal will be also ground (at zero voltage)
and so, the collector terminal of the BJT will be at zero voltage.
i.e.,
VC = 0 volt
The current in 1 kW resistor is given by
I = 5 - 0 = 5 mA
1 kW
This current will flow completely through the BJT since, no current will flow
into the ideal op-amp ( I/P resistance of ideal op-amp is infinity). So, for BJT
we have
VC = 0
VB = 0
IC = 5 mA
i.e.,the base collector junction is reverse biased (zero voltage) therefore, the
collector current (IC ) can have a value only if base-emitter is forward biased.
Hence,
VBE = 0.7 volts
&
VB - VE = 0.7
&
0 - Vout = 0.7
or,
Vout =- 0.7 volt

Sol. 2

Option (A) is correct.

The i/p voltage of the system is given as
Vin = V1 + Vf = V1 + k Vout
= V1 + k A 0 V1
^Vout = A 0 V1h
= V1 ^1 + k A 0h
Therefore, if k is increased then input voltage is also increased so, the input
impedance increases. Now, we have
Vin
Vout = A 0 V1 = A 0
= A 0 Vin
^1 + k A 0h
^1 + k A 0h
Since, Vin is independent of k when seen from output mode, the output voltage
decreases with increase in k that leads to the decrease of output impedance.
Thus, input impedance increases and output impedance decreases.

Sol. 3

Option (A) is correct.

For the given circuit, we obtain the small signal model as shown in figure below :

Option (B) is correct.

From the circuit, we have

Is = IZ + I L
(1)
or,
IZ = Is - I L
Since, voltage across zener diode is 5 V so, current through 100 W resistor is
obtained as
Is = 10 - 5 = 0.05 A

Therefore, the load current is given by
IL = 5

Since, for proper operation, we must have
