what are active and Passive Components?

Answer Posted / as.gokul nath

Active component:
1)The active component are capable for amplifying on
processing an electrical signal.
2) The required an external force for there processing
e.g. transistors, tube devices(vacuum tubes).

passive components:
1) The passive component are not capable for processing.
2)It does not required any external force for there
processing
e.g. Resistors, capacitor, inductor, oscillator, led's, etc.
