anybody can tell me about passive components or lumped elements

OpenStudy (anonymous):

passive components are the elements in a circuit which use the energy (part of the energy) given to it. ie elements like resistor,capacitor etc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly. In other words passive components consume power, while active provide it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

passive components may be slaves to those components which are actively involved in operation .ie they are dependent on other(active components ) for their survival ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

passive elements are those which do not source energy
