Part A

125 marks
a

Define node, a junction and a branch.

2 marks

Answer

A node is a point where two or more circuit elements are connected. A junction is a point where three or more circuit elements meet. A branch is a single path containing one or more circuit elements between two nodes.

b

Summarize the classifications of Circuit elements.

3 marks

Answer

Circuit elements are classified as follows:

  • Active vs Passive: Active elements (e.g., voltage/current sources) supply energy, while passive elements (e.g., resistors, inductors, capacitors) dissipate or store energy.
  • Linear vs Non-linear: Linear elements follow Ohm's law, while non-linear elements (e.g., diodes) do not.
  • Unilateral vs Bilateral: Bilateral elements (e.g., resistors) conduct equally in both directions, whereas unilateral elements (e.g., transistors) conduct differently based on polarity.
