What effect does a speaker wire's gauge have on speaker sound
quality?
Ans: Lower gauge wires are thicker with better sound quality.
What's the primary advantage of a quad-band cell phone over a dual-

Ans: When the current overcomes resistance in the wire,
creating heat. This heat effect occurs when current must
overcome the resistance of wire.
What special type of diode is commonly used to regulate voltage?
Ans: Zener diode, which is available in a variety of voltages.
Electromotive force is another way of saying
Ans: Voltage. It is the pressure of the current.
A primary advantage of using a Li-Ion battery instead o a NiMH battery
in your cell-phone is:
Ans: Li-Ion battries. Much more so than Nickel Metal Hydride
[NiMH] batteries.
Transistors contain at least three terminals called the:
Ans: Base, emitter, and collector.
To control a light fixture from two different wall switches, you should
