The ____ provides the physical structure that holds the relay together, and is made of iron to provide a low permeability path to guide the magnetic lines of flux of the control coil.

A) yoke
B) armature
C) current
D) coil

Yoke

In electrical engineering, a yoke is the frame that holds or supports magnetic core materials in devices like transformers or some types of motors, contributing to the magnetic circuit's path.

Relay

An electrically operated switch that uses a small electrical current to control a larger circuit.

Iron

A chemical element used primarily as a base material in steel manufacturing, known for its durability and magnetic properties.

  • Familiarize oneself with the operational significance of relay components such as the yoke, armature, and control coil in the mechanism of relay action.

Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The yoke provides the physical structure that holds the relay together, and is made of iron to provide a low permeability path to guide the magnetic lines of flux of the control coil. The armature is the moving part of the relay, the current is the flow of electrons, and the coil is the part of the relay that generates the magnetic field.
