Packet J: Bonus 15
From symmetry arguments, Leon Chua proposed the memristor as the 4th fundamental circuit element with this property. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this property of circuit elements like the capacitor and inductor, which dissipate energy without producing any.
ANSWER: passivity [or passive elements or passive components]
[10e] The other passive circuit element is this element, whose strength is indicated by a series of 3 to 6 colored bands, and is measured in ohms.
ANSWER: resistors
[10m] Passive circuit elements pass through the origin and occupy only the first and third quadrants of these plots. An ideal resistor traces out a straight line with slope equal to resistance on these curves.
ANSWER: I–V curves [or current–voltage characteristic curves; or characteristic curves]
