\(A p - n\) junction can \(\operatorname{act}\) as ____________
A. an amplifier B. a rectifier C. an inductor D. a capacitor
Correct Answer: B
Explanation
A \(P - n\) junction can act as a rectifier of an \(AC\) voltage NB: (1) A transistor can act as a current amplifier (2) An inductor is used to generate self induced e.m.f whenever there is a changing current in the inductor or coil. A capacitor is a device used for storing charges (3) The property of a coil (inductor) that opposes any change in the amount of current flowing through it is called the inductance of the inductor
