Consider the circuits below. Both circuits are candidates to be used in a satellite where they would be
used as heaters. It is desirable that the circuits produce a predictable amount of heat in their respective
collector resistances, Rc.
a) For both circuits, calculate the $V_c$ and $I_c$ for both $\beta = 10$ and $\beta = 100$. Make a table to present the
results.
b) Which circuit will be better suited to be used in the satellite? Motivate!
