C) All Relays Have Moving Parts.: A) Physical Size

The document contains questions about relays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Relays are electromechanical switches that can be used to interface circuits and usually have moving parts. PLCs are programmable controllers that use a microprocessor and ladder logic programming to control machines and processes. PLCs are designed to minimize the use of relays for control and provide flexible, reliable and low-cost control.
