Circuit Diagrams
 

Circuit Diagrams problem 12


  • The figure below shows the electrical symbols for some circuit components. Identify the circuit component for each electrical symbol.


    Draw a line from each electrical symbol to the name of the circuit component.




  • A student connects the circuit shown in the figure below. The value of the fixed resistor is .


    Fig. 9b



    The switch is closed. The reading on the ammeter is .

    • Calculate the potential difference (p.d.) across the fixed resistor.

    • State the name of the device for measuring potential difference.

    • Show how the student connects the device stated in (b)(ii) to measure the p.d. across the fixed resistor. Draw the correct symbol and connections on Fig. 9b.
