for an nmos,if gate and source both are at 5 v,will i get 5volt at drain...?
NMOS turns on when V(gs) >= V(th) here V(gs)=0 ( gate and source both at 5V) so NMOS remains in off state. Now as for the question 2 cases arise. 1 Drain terminal is open. 2 Drain is connected to a load. Case1. |dw:1338449027897:dw| here you'll get 5 V at your drain terminal as a MOSFET can be modelled as a controlled linear resistor so if you consider your mosfet to be a resistor you'll get |dw:1338449237836:dw| where left side is source and take right to be drain , now since drain is open you'll get Voltage same as that of source at the drain ( remember what happens with open circuits ) Case2: |dw:1338449367500:dw| in this case you will get VX at drain terminal because NMOS is in off state (Vgs<Vth) so again an open circuit. Hope it helps, please forgive my drawing :)
