A stage with \( R_{C} = 5 \ \mathrm{k\Omega} \) drives another of \( 5 \ \mathrm{k\Omega} \) input impedance. Its effective load is

  • A.1.25 kilohms
  • B.2.5 kilohms
  • C.10 kilohms, the two resistances added together
  • D.5 kilohms

Answer: B

The two appear in parallel to the signal:

\[ R_{L} = \frac{5 \times 5}{10} = 2.5 \ \mathrm{k\Omega} \]

so 2.5 kilohms, halving the first stage's gain. Adding them would apply to a series connection, which is not what a coupled load is. Recognising which combination applies is settled by asking whether the two elements share a voltage or a current.
