The plate current in a triode is given by $I _{ p }=0.004\left(V_{ p }+10 V_{ g }\right)^{3 / 2} mA$ where $I _{ p }, V _{ p }$ and $V _{ g }$ are the values of plate current, plate voltage and grid voltage, respectively. What are the triode parameters $\mu, r_p$ and $g_m$ for the operating point at $V_p=120$ volt and $V _{ g }=-2$ volt?
