Explanation :

A power amplifier is used to amplify electric signals i.e. to increase the low power signal to higher powers.

A PNP transistor is connected in a circuit so that the collector-base junction remains reverse biased and the emitter-base junction is forward biased.

This transistor can be used as a power amplifier because it gives a much larger output current. The gain of an amplifier shows the amount of amplification. It is the difference between the input and the output signals.
