Use these questions to help you revise (cover the right-hand side with a sheet of paper).

1 What is an electric current? (pages 255, 258) ... a flow of electrons (–), moving from the negative terminal to the positive terminal.

2 Where in a circuit should you put an ammeter?

(p. 256) ... in series with the component whose current

you want to measure. 3 Where in a circuit should you put a voltmeter?

(p. 258) ... in parallel, across the component whose p.d.

you want to measure.

4 Draw a circuit diagram of a cell, switch, lamp, ammeter and variable resistor in series. (p. 254, 256, 261)

6 A resistance of 4 is carrying a current of 2 A,

and is in series with a resistor of 6 . What is the total resistance and what is the current through the 6 resistor? (p. 262)

... total resistance = 4 + 6 = 10 current through each resistor (in series) = 2 A

7 A resistor of 2 is in parallel with a resistor ... the smaller resistor (2 ) has the bigger

of 4 . Which resistor has the bigger current? (p. 263)

current. (It will be twice as big.)

8 In the diagram,

each cell has a p.d. of 1.5 V. What is the total p.d.?

... 6 V

9 What does the gradient of a current–voltage

tell you? (p. 265) ... the steeper the graph, the less the

resistance. 10 Why is the current–voltage graph for a

filament lamp a curved line? (p. 265) ... as more current flows, the metal filament

gets hotter, so its resistance increases, so the graph gets flatter.

11 A current of 2 A flows for 1 minute.

How much charge flows? (p. 266) ... charge, Q = current, I time, t = 2 A 120 s = 240 C

36 Electromagnetic induction

Use these questions to help you revise (cover the right-hand side with a sheet of paper).

1 What happens if a magnet is pushed into a coil? (page 303)

... a voltage is induced in the coil (and a current flows if there is a complete circuit).

2 What happens if this magnet is pulled out of

the coil? (p. 303) ... the current flows the opposite way.

3 How could the current be increased? (p. 303) ... by using:

• a stronger magnet • a quicker movement • more turns on the coil.

4 What is the difference between a.c. and d.c.?

(p. 305) ... d.c. = direct current, like the current from

a battery. It flows one way. a.c. = alternating current, as in the mains. It is constantly changing direction.

5 What can you say about the electricity in the

mains? (p. 305) ... it is a.c., at a frequency of 50Hz.

Its effective voltage is 230V (and its peak voltage is 320V).

6 How could the voltage (and the current) from

an a.c. generator be increased? (p. 306) ... by using:

• a coil with more turns • a stronger magnetic field • a coil turning faster • a coil with a bigger area.

7 Why is a high voltage used for the power lines

in the National Grid network? (p. 309) ... the higher the voltage, the smaller the

current needed to transfer energy at the same rate. A smaller current means less energy is wasted (in heating up the power lines).

8 Why is a.c. used in the mains and the National

Grid? (p. 309) ... so that transformers can be used (they do

not work with d.c.). 9 A transformer has a primary coil with 20 turns

and a secondary coil with 100 turns. If the primary voltage is 3V, what is the secondary voltage? (p. 308)

... It is a step-up transformer (ratio 1:5)

10

If this transformer is 100% efficient, and 1A is flowing in the primary, what current can flow in the secondary? (p. 308)

... if the voltage is stepped-up by 1:5, then the current is stepped-down by the same ratio, to amp (0.2A).
