The things needed to build a circuit are:Circuit elements like resistor capacitors, inductors etcConnectors (cables)A source
If two circuit elements (e.g., two resistors) are in series (a series circuit), the current has to pass first through one, then through the other. If they are in parallel, the current has a choice, through which of the elements it passes.
When two resistors are in series, you add the elements together. When two elements are in parallel you multiply them and divide that by the sum. ie: parallel elements 7 ohms and 8 ohms (8*7)/(8+7).If there are more than 2 in parallel however, just fill in this:1/Req=1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/RNReq is the final answer of the equivalent resistance.Rn means you keep adding the reciprocal of the other resistors in parallel.
Silicon is used in electronics as a semi-conductor. All of the processing units in computers now use silicon to keep parts from causing electrical signals from passing from part to part unless it is meant to. Silicon is also used in the making of transistors.
Probably the most common resistor in a household appliance is the resistive heating element. They appear in an electrical stove or range. The standard electric range and its oven have resistive heating elements in them. They're just "oversized" resistors that get really hot when we run current through them. Toasters have resistive heating elements, too. Most of the use nichrome in the form of wire or in little flat strips. Some have quartz heating elements, which have that resistive heating element inside quartz or fused silica glass. Coffee makers have resistive heating elements. Toaster ovens, too. Hair dryers and straightners? Yup. Anything that plugs in and is designed to get hot probably has a resistive heating element in it. There are actual resistors, like the electronic components, in all the electronic equipment in the house. All of it. They may be discreet components, or may be part of an integrated circuit. But they're there.
integrated circuit
We can not display symbols for electronic components on WikiAnswers, but the elemental components from which radios are made are transistors, resistors, capacitors, wires and speakers.
Electrical elements are conceptual abstractions representing idealized electrical components, such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, used in the analysis of electrical networks.(wikipedia)RC elements is the elements consisting of resistors and capacitors
A; Any components that provide gain/loss are active device resistors, capacitors are passive
The essential elements in a circuit include a power source (such as a battery), conducting wires, a load (such as a light bulb), and components like resistors, capacitors, and transistors that control the flow of electricity. These elements work together to allow the flow of electric current in a circuit.
Silicon and germanium are the elements used in transistors
simply defining Lumped elements are components available in market i.e., resistors,capacitors,inductors...... Whereas Distributed elements are inbuilt property( resistance,capacitance,inductance )of a connecting wire
Silicon and germanium are the elements used in transistors
Silicon and germanium are among the widely used semiconducting elements.
Identifying BJTs and FETs on the circuitIt is in fact possible to identify transistors in circuits. However, this depends on one's familiarity with the different types of BJT and FET constructions. Since the transistor is a three-terminal device, it is easy to differentiate it from other circuit elements such as resistors, capacitors and inductorswhich are all two-terminal devices. The only exceptions to this may include regulators; which though are not transistors are provided with three terminals.
Resistance is not considered a passive element in the context of electrical circuits. Passive elements are components that do not introduce energy into the circuit, such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Resistors, however, dissipate energy in the form of heat and actively oppose the flow of electrical current.
