Solid-state component for this question have a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectricity Vacuum tubes such as cathode-ray tubes (CRT) used in some computer monitors and televisions A. can change alternating current into direct current.

This question would have to use elimination - it can't be D as it in not digital, it can't be unbreakable so it's not C, and it can technically do both A and B (oscillating voltage) so I would go for the better answer, A
