Hi everyone, took a bit of a break lately...but with 6 days left to the final test of electronics, I figured I'd clear up some understandings I have

Homework Statement

I'm asked if the VBB potentials are flipped, at what condition will the transistor be? (conductance, saturation, cutoff...)

The Attempt at a Solution



I say cutoff, because no current flows to the gate of the transistor hence no current flows in the transistor. The transistor acts like a disconnection in the circuit.
