(a) What happens to the voltage
V
C
if the transistor is replaced by one having a larger value of β?

(b) What happens to the voltage
V
CE
if the ground leg of resistor
R2 opens (does not connect to ground)?

(c) What happens to
I
C
if the supply voltage is low?

(d) What voltage
V
CE
would occur if the transistor base–emitter junction fails by becoming open?

(e) What voltage
V
CE
would result if the transistor base–emitter junction fails by becoming a short?
