Question

Order of the circuit is the number of memory elements present in the circuit.

(a) True

(b) False

This question was posed to me in examination.

My question is from Induction Motors in chapter Braking of DC Motors & Induction Motors of Electric Drives

Answer 1

The statement "Order of the circuit is the number of memory elements present in the circuit" is True.

In control systems and circuit theory, the order of a circuit refers to the number of energy storage elements (such as capacitors and inductors) or memory elements (like flip-flops) present in the system. These elements store energy or information and determine the dynamic behavior of the circuit.

Thus, the correct answer is (a) True.
