Answer / abhijit
in simple words
An acitve element which reqires external electric supply
for its operation. e.g. transistor, diode.
An passive element is the element which do not reqired any
power supply for its operation like
resistor,capacitor,inductor

Answer / lokesh bansal
active component are those components which are capable to
add some thing into the input in the form of gain or
attenuation.like tansistors,diodes etc.
but the passive component can't capable to change the input
means no gain no attenuation but have some energy loss in
the form of heat like resistor ,capacitors etc.

Answer / harsha5
Active elements are which capable of producing energy in infinite interval of time.passive elements are which can not produce energy and these can store energy
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / nvnv pavan
active component is an element capable of furnishing avg.power
greater than zero to some external device, where the avg. is
taken over a infinite time interval
passive cant deliver extrnl power
