1

Which of the following allows encapsulating complex circuit designs for easier integration into electronic devices and machines?

67% Answer Correctly

parallel circuits

integrated circuits

series circuits

series-parallel circuits


Solution

Circuits containing transistors are packaged into integrated circuit chips that allow encapsulating complex circuit designs (CPU, memory, I/O) for easier integration into electronic devices and machines.


2

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a step-up transformer?

54% Answer Correctly

increases voltage

the primary voltage is higher than the secondary voltage

the secondary voltage is higher than the primary voltage

has more turns in the secondary winding than in the primary winding


Solution

As their names indicate, a step-up transformer is used to step up or increase voltage and a step-down transformer is used to step down or decrease voltage. In a step-up transformer, the secondary voltage is higher than the primary voltage and it has more turns in the secondary winding than in the primary winding.


3

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

57% Answer Correctly

DC source

AC source

capacitor

transformer


Solution

Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of direct current (DC) is a battery.


4

The hertz is a unit of measurement for:

81% Answer Correctly

energy

frequency

inductance

power


Solution

The hertz is a unit of measurement for frequency.


5

An engineer who wants to document an electric circuit would create which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

a schematic

a blueprint

a layout

a matrix


Solution

A schematic is the proper name for a drawing of an electric or electronic circuit.
