Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The critical path is the longest path in the network diagram as it determines the minimum time required to complete the project. It can change during the project if task durations or dependencies change, but it will always be the longest path in the network. The critical path has zero slack, not negative or positive slack, as any delay in critical path activities will delay the project completion date.
