Question

In a normal operation of a transistor,

(b) the base−collector junction is forward-baised
(c) the base−emitter junction is reverse-baised
(d) the base−collector junction is reverse-baised.

Solution

(a) the base−emitter junction is forward-biassed
(d) the base−collector junction is reverse-biassed

In the normal operation of a transistor, the base−emitter junction is forward biassed and the base−collector junction is reverse biassed. This is done so that the conduction of majority carriers can take place across the emitter−base junction and the free electrons can reach the collector to give the output current.
