is transformer, active or passive device?
name some active and passive devices.

Answer Posted / hariohm kumar

Transformer is a passive device..Active device is that which
has the ability to electrically control(control AC using DC)
flow of electrons.
But transformer has not such type of ability.
Example:-Active-Transistor,SCR,TRIACs etc.
Passive-Resistors,capacitors,inductors,transformers,Diodes etc.

As a water tank loses heat, the temperature drops by 2 K/min when a heater is on, the system gains temperature at 4 K/min. A two-position controller has a 0.5 min control lag and a neutral zone of ± 4% of the setpoint about a setpoint of 323 K. Plot the heater temperature versus time. Find the oscillation period
