    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    For a FET oscillator, the oscillator frequency is

    C = 6.4 nF

    For FET Oscillator,

    |A| = gmRL = 5000 x 10-6 RL

    i.e., 40 = 5000 x 10-6 x RL

    = 8 KΩ

    Now,

    Using RL = 8 K and rd = 40 K (given)

    We find RD as follows:

    = 10 K

    RD = 10 K.
