Passive Sign Convention
Problem #2
For each device, state whether Passive Sign Convention (PSC) or Active Sign Convention (ASC) is used for the defined current and voltage. Then determine whether the device is absorbing or delivering power.
Need a hint?
Review the rules for determining whether something follows PSC and ASC. Then remember that P = V*I. Be careful about the signs used.
