Component Characteristics Flashcards
1
Q
Explain the Graph of the Torch Bulb?
A
- The Line Curve Away From the Y-Axis. So the Current is Not Directly Proportional to the Potential Difference.
- The Resistance Increases as the Current Increases.
- Reversing the Potential Differences Reverses the Current.
2
Q
Explain the Graph of the The Diode?
A
- In the Forward Direction, the Line Curves Towards the Y-Axis.
- In the Reverse Direction, the Current is Virtually Zero.
