Why the name is FET?

FET stands for Field Effect Transistor. The name FET comes because the gate current of a field effect transistor is zero and current present in the source conductor is due to an electric field produced by the substrate material placed between the gate and the source.


What is effect of an unbypassed resistor on the common emitter amplifier circuit?

An emitter resistor in a common emitter circuit will cause the stage to experience the effects of degenerative feedback if it is unbypassed. The degenerative feedback reduces gain. This is probably the primary effect in the described circuit.


In Paralleling busbar with different cross sectional area then what would be the effect on the smaller one?

if the bus-bars are used as the neutral or ground, then 0v would return. nothing will happen except for less room for connections


What is corona effect in electrical?

When the distance between two conductors is more than that of the diameter and the potential difference is increased beyond the certain limit in such a way so that a glow ( seems like violet and shine ) is produced around the conductor and also noise is produced. This kind of effect called the Corona Effect in power systems. As the potential difference is increased, Corona Effect is also increased, and due to Corona Effect, Power loss in power system and disturbance in the nearer communication line is also increased.
