* A resistor can only absorb power (from the circuit) since v and i have the same

resistor and the rest of the world.
* A resistor can only absorb power (from the circuit) since v and i have the same

* Often, a “heat sink” is provided to dissipate the thermal energy effectively so
that the device temperature does not become too high.

* Often, a “heat sink” is provided to dissipate the thermal energy effectively so

* A source (e.g., a DC voltage source) can absorb or deliver power since the signs
of v and i are independent. For example, when a battery is charged, it absorbs
energy which gets stored within.

* A capacitor can absorb or deliver power. When it is absorbing power, its charge
builds up. Similarly, an inductor can store energy (in the form of magnetic flux).
