1

Resistance is opposition to which of the following?

70% Answer Correctly

conductance

voltage

current

impedance


Solution

Resistance is opposition to the flow of current and is measured in ohms (Ω). One ohm is defined as the amount of resistance that will allow one ampere of current to flow if one volt of voltage is applied. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.


2

This circuit component symbol represents a(n):

67% Answer Correctly

transistor

diode

inductor

transformer


Solution

The transistor is the foundation of modern electronic devices. It is made entirely from semiconductor material (making it a solid state device) and can serve many different functions in a circuit including acting as a switch, amplifier, or current regulator. A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current applied at the base to control general current flow from collector to emitter through the transistor.


3

Which of the following is not a terminal on a transistor?

59% Answer Correctly

base

collector

emitter

input


Solution

A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current applied at the base to control general current flow from collector to emitter through the transistor.


4

A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current to control general current flow. Where is the small amount of current applied?

55% Answer Correctly

input

collector

emitter

base
