Question

Q10) Which one of the following is a passive element to an electrical circuit?
a) Current source
b) Voltage source
c) Resistor
d) Battery​

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Active components are the elements or devices which are capable of providing or delivering energy to the circuit. Passive components are the ones that do not require any external source for the operation and are capable of storing energy in the form of voltage or current in the circuit.

Answer 2

c) Resistor is a passive element in an electrical circuit.

What are electrical circuit passive devices?

• Energy is not generated by passive devices or components, but it may be stored or dissipated.
• Passive devices, such as resistors, inductors, capacitors, and transformers, are essential components in the construction of any electrical or electronic circuit.
• Passive components do not require any type of electrical power to function.
• Passive devices, as the name implies, do not produce gain or amplification.
• Passive components are incapable of amplifying, oscillating, or producing an electrical signal.
• Resistors are a common example of a passive component.

In electrical circuits, what are active devices?

• Active components are circuit components that use an external power source to regulate or change electrical signals.
• Electricity is used to manage electricity in active components such as transistors and silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs).
• An active device is a device that converts and injects electricity or energy into a circuit.
• Examples include diodes, transistors, SCRs, integrated circuits (ICs), DC generators, current and voltage sources, and so on.
