  A NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is connected in common emitter (CE) configuration as shown in the circuit diagram below. The amplifier is operating in the saturation regime. The collector-emitter saturation voltage (\(V_{CE,sat}\)) is 0.2 V. The current gain \(\beta = 100\). The maximum value of base resistance \(R_{BB}\) is \rule{1cm{0.15mm} k\(\Omega\).

  For a Zener diode as shown in the circuit diagram below, the Zener voltage \(V_Z\) is 3.7 V. For a load resistance (\(R_L\)) of 1 k\(\Omega\), a current \(I_1\) flows through the load. If \(R_L\) is decreased to 500 \(\Omega\), the current changes to \(I_2\). The ratio \(\frac{I_2}{I_1}\) is \rule{1cm{0.15mm}. (up to two decimal places)}

  One kg of water at 27\(^\circ\)C is brought in contact with a heat reservoir kept at 37\(^\circ\)C. Upon reaching thermal equilibrium, this mass of water is brought in contact with another heat reservoir kept at 47\(^\circ\)C. The final temperature of water is 47\(^\circ\)C. The change in entropy of the whole system in this entire process is \rule{1cm{0.15mm} cal/K. (up to two decimal places)
  Take specific heat at constant pressure of water as 1 cal/(g K)}
