Current, potential difference and resistance key terms

resistor

resistor is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Relate I-V graph shapes to the function and properties of resistors, filament lamps and diodes..

graph shapes function

In Resistors, graph shapes function means the precise GCSE Physics idea needed to relate I-V graph shapes to the function and properties of resistors, filament lamps and diodes. It helps avoid mixing up current, charge and time.

resistor

resistor is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Required practical activity 4: construct circuits to investigate I-V characteristics for a filament lamp, a diode and a resistor at constant temperature..

required practical activity

In Resistors, required practical activity means the precise GCSE Physics idea needed to required practical activity 4: construct circuits to investigate I-V characteristics for a filament lamp, a diode and a resistor at constant temperature. It helps avoid mixing up current, charge and time.

I-V characteristic

I-V characteristic is a curriculum-aligned term linked to the learning objective: Apply AT 6 and AT 7 skills when constructing and using I-V characteristic circuits..
