Fundamental of Electric Circuits
Questions And Answers.
Electrical Circuits - answer:-the structures that provide paths through which electricity
travels
Electrical Circuits - answer:-path along which electrons flow; may be wired as series
circuits or parallel circuits
Active Elements - answer:-possess energy of their own and can impart it to other
element of the circuit
voltage source - answer:-a device that creates a potential difference in an electric circuit
Current source - answer:-A device that produces a constant current for a varying load.
Passive Elements - answer:-Electronic devices that cannot create energy
Active Elements - answer:-Diodes, Transistors, SCR, Integrated Circuits
Passive Elements - answer:-Resistors, Inductorsm Capacitors, Transformers
Resistors - answer:-Devices that apply resistance to a circuit to manage current
Resistors - answer:-objects that allow charge to flow at a reduced rate
Resistors - answer:-control the amount of electricity that needs to flow
Capacitors - answer:-have the ability to store and discharge electrical potential energy
Capacitors - answer:-like small rechargeable batteries that store small amounts of
charge in them
Capacitors - answer:-Allows AC and resist DC
Polarized - answer:-capacitors that have a positive and negative terminal
Non-polarized - answer:-capacitors that do not have any positive or negative terminals
Inductors - answer:-materials that do not allow electric charges to flow through them
easily; contain 5-8 valence electrons; ex. mica, glass, quartz
Light Emitting Diode - answer:-LED
LED - answer:-used to indicate the state of current at any point in a circuit
, Fundamental of Electric Circuits
Questions And Answers.
LED - answer:-checking the output voltage or current on a circuit becomes simpler with
these light-based indicators
Transistors - answer:-a tiny circuit board with millions of switches; located inside the
CPU chip
Transistors - answer:-used to build complex electrical systems, such as amplifiers for
instance
Inductors - answer:-used to build complicated electrical systems
Inductors - answer:-essentially coils of wire that are wound around other components
Integrated Circuits - answer:-electrical components that combine, or integrate,
numerous electrical components
Integrated Circuits - answer:-like a ready-made chip that you can use to complete the
project you want to build without having to use lots of single transistors or capacitors
Integrated Circuits - answer:-chips that contain large numbers of tiny transistors
fabricated into a semiconducting material called silicon
Physical - answer:-properties that are measurable
Mechanical - answer:-_________ properties are how the metal performs when different
forces are applied to them
Mechanical - answer:-may be greatly affected by processing due to rearrangement of
the internal structure
Physical - answer:-Metalworking processes or heat treatment might play a role in
affecting some....
Come Come Dance Dance Everyone Fly High People Since Tomorrow Wow - answer:-
Mnemonics properties
Conductivity - answer:-The ability of an object to transfer heat or electricity to another
object. It is measured as one degree per unit of time, per unit of cross-sectioned area,
per unit of length
Low thermal conductivity - answer:-used as insulators
High thermal conductivity - answer:-may be a heat sink
