A n-p-n transistor is connected in common emitter configuration (see figure) in which collector voltage drop across load resistance (800 $\Omega$) connected to the collector circuit is 0.8 V. The collector current is
A 0.2 mA
B 2 mA
C 0.1 mA
D 1 mA

Detailed Solution

Voltage drop across load resistance $V=I_CR_C\Rightarrow I_C=\dfrac{V}{R_C}=\dfrac{0.8}{800}=1\times10^{-3}\ A=1$ mA.
