Answer Key

#1
IB = 38.3 μA

Notes:
This circuit was purposely drawn in a convoluted fashion to force students to identify its configuration apart from the standard layout. Many
people lack the spatial reasoning skills to do this easily, and require a lot of practice before they become proficient. Ask your more proficient
students if they have any “tips” for helping those who struggle with problems like these. Are there any simple methods which we may use to
re-draw this circuit in an easier-to-understand form?

#2
Biasing is accomplished through the 100 kΩ resistor. The 10 kΩ potentiometer is the volume control, and the 22 μF capacitor serves to
“couple” the input signal to the transistor’s base, while blocking any DC bias voltage from being “fed back” to the audio signal source.

Notes:
This circuit is simple enough to assemble and test in an hour or two, on a solderless breadboard. It would make a great lab experiment, and
can be used by the students outside of class!

#3.
