Transistors and Capacitors

Are transistors and capacitors included in the physics study design? I was convinced that it was scrapped from it but my teacher is organising some questions on transistors and capacitors to be on the SAC.

Transistors and Capacitors are not part of the mainstream physics study design.

You will learn about capacitors if you do further electronics though.

are u 100% sure?? in our text (heineken latest edition) there are questions in the photonics section with phototransistors....

please confirm.. because transistors are the only real problem for me atm in AOS2

*EDIT* nvm ive seen other posts!!! THATS MAD!

Hehe though the transistor questions I've seen aren't that bad...it's kinda like a voltage divider circuit right? :D

i guess, but like anything that u dont get at first - its a real pest...

i just dont get the optical gain from b-e to c-e ....im just glad its not on the design!
