(a) Which two resistors have the same resistance value? Use the data to show this. [2]
(b) Calculate the maximum resistance that can be made using all four resistors. [1]
(b) Calculate the maximum resistance that can be made using all four resistors. [1]
answer: ........................... Ω
(c) (i) Draw a circuit diagram that could be used to find out how the resistance of a filament bulb changes with current.
Describe the readings you need to take. [4]
(ii) Sketch the shape of the graph using the axes below.
Describe the readings you need to take. [4]
(ii) Sketch the shape of the graph using the axes below.
State how this graph can be used to calculate resistance at any specific value of current. [2]
(d) A voltmeter is used to measure the output voltages produced from the circuit.
The voltmeter is not connected to a circuit and not recording a voltage.
