The input resistance of a silicon transistor is 100 Ω. If the base current is changed by 40 µA, it results in a change in collector current by 2 mA. This transistor is used as a common emitter amplifier with a load resistance of 4 kΩ. The voltage gain of the amplifier is:

1.  3000 

2.  4000 

3.  1000 

4.  2000
