Is resistance a linear device?

YES it is linear. It is a passive device classified as linear however as frequency increases its behavior will change.


What are the examples of non linear devices?

"A device for which the output is, within a given dynamic range, linearly proportional to the input" e.g. a spring scale is linear device for measuring weight.


What electronic device is used for induction?

The inductor is basically used for induction in electronics domain. such in the transformer inductor cause the electromagnetic induction which cause the flux to link with secondary winding and generate the voltage on secondary winding.inductors are also used in tunned circuits.


If an inductor and a switch are connected in parallel through which the current will flow in an AC circuit?

A:The inductor does not allow ac signal to pass through. It blocks ac and passes dc. If the switch is open, then the ac signal wont pass. If the switch is closed, then the ac signal will pass through the switch.AnswerIt is incorrect to say that an inductor 'does not allow' the passage of an alternating current. An a.c. current will pass through an inductor, although the inductor will limit the value of that current due to the inductor's inductive reactance. Inductive reactance, which is expressed in ohms, is directly-proportional to the inductance of the inductor and to the frequency of the supply. The value of the current is determined by dividing the supply voltage by the inductive reactance of the inductor.If the switch is connected in parallel with the inductor, then closing the switch will apply a direct short circuit across the inductor, and the resulting short-circuit current will cause the circuit's protective device (fuse or circuit breaker) to operate.


The only device that develops true power in an electronic circuit is the inductor?

The resistor is the only component to develop true power in an ac circuit. The inductor and capacitors absorb energy on one half cycle and return it to the supply on the next. The resistive part of the inductor (wire coil if low frequency type) will develop true power due to its value of resistance ie it will get warm.

The correct formula to determine how many Amps of current a device will draw is?

There is no formula it depends on the device. If the device is linear it can be ascertain but if it a non linear then it becomes quite complex


What is an inductor and its current rating?

An inductor is an electrical component, usually a coil, designed to offer a specific value of inductance (measured in henrys). As the operating current of an inductor affects its inductance its inductance value (inductors are not linear devices, due to their hysteresis characteristics) is normally expressed for a specific range of operating currents.
