Components

"One part of a whole thing."

Two Types:

  1. Passive Components

  2. Active Components

Passive Components:

Components that can only receive energy.

Example: Resistor, Capacitor, Inductor etc

Active Components:

Components that can also supply energy .

Example: Battery, Generator, Transistor etc

Questions:

  1. Capacitors and Inductors can store energy and capable of supplying it when required. Then why they are passive components?
