What will be the Beta factor in common emitter configuration of transistor, if it's alpha factor is 1/2?

What will be the Beta factor in common emitter configuration of transistor, if it's alpha factor is 1/2?

Explanation

The relation between alpha (α) and beta (β) is given by:

β = α / (1 - α)

Given α = 1/2:

β = (1/2) / (1 - 1/2)

= (1/2) / (1/2)

= 1
