6. what is the equation for charge flow?

  • electrons x time
  • current x time
  • voltage x time
  • electrons x current

7. what does the blue neutral wire do?

  • nothing
  • ensure the casing doesn't become active
  • complete the circuit
  • carries the mains electricity

8. how are components connected in parallel circuits?

  • they aren't
  • separately connected to the positive and negative end of the power supply
  • next to each other in a line
  • coming from a hub branching off the power supply

9. what is the unit for charge?

  • volts (v)
  • grams (g)
  • amps (A)
  • coulombs (C)

10. what is the equation for potential difference?

  • P.d. = current x resistance
  • P.d. = voltage x resistance
  • P.d. = voltage x current
  • P.d. = 2 x current

  • nothing

14. what is a light dependant resistor?

  • resistor that needs light to work
  • resistor that changes based on light intensity
  • LED that changes light output based on resistance
  • resistor that transforms current into light

15. how does resistance of a thermistor change in o

  • temperature councils out resistance
  • temperature does not affect resistance
