yes, it is a passive component.
Diode rectifier
Active means devices that perform functions in a non linear fashion [amplifiers] passive are components that perform according to a set of linear rules
Active transducers are those which require electric current (a source of energy) for working, while passive transducers are those which does not need an external source. Passive transducers directly produce electric signals without an external energy source.
Electronic component are those component which are used to make the electronic circuit it may be active or passive . some active components are - Diode ,FET,BJT,MOSFET, and HEMT etc. while passive component are those device which can not process/amplify signal like- resistor capacitor inductor etc.
Resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes are all passive components.
passive
A passive component does not interact as an active component like an amplifier
Diode rectifier
rectifier. not unique to laptops.
Rectifier
Diodes and rectifier
it is a active component.
A "Rectifier" is an electrical component that changes AC current to DC current by blocking current in one direction. High power rectifiers may be "assembled" from multiple individual component rectifiers to handle higher power or larger voltages.
Active means devices that perform functions in a non linear fashion [amplifiers] passive are components that perform according to a set of linear rules
the regulation is act of filtering the ac component of the output signal.in percentage regulation we calculate the percentage of the filtering component.
ANS- a dc component, VL(dc) = VLM/π FOR HALF WAVE RECTIFICATION.V(dc)=V(average)
"a tap on a pole" is not a complete sentence. It does not contain a verb (a key component in active and passive voice), so it is neither active nor passive.
