Electricity flashcards
Every deck we have for Electricity, part of AQA GCSE Physics. 128 questions written against the published specification, free to study with no account. Each deck schedules its own reviews, so cards you find hard come back sooner than ones you have already got right.
Current, Potential Difference and Resistance
28 cardsWhat current and potential difference actually are, Ohms law, the circuit symbols you must know, and the required practical on the resistance of a wire.
Circuit Components and I-V Characteristics
26 cardsThe current against potential difference graphs for a resistor, filament lamp and diode, why each has its shape, and how LDRs and thermistors respond.
Series and Parallel Circuits
26 cardsHow current, potential difference and resistance behave in each type of circuit, why adding parallel resistors lowers total resistance, and how to work through circuit questions.
Mains Electricity, Power and the National Grid
28 cardsDirect and alternating current, plug wiring and safety, the power and energy equations, and why the National Grid uses transformers.
Static Electricity
20 cardsHow objects become charged by friction, attraction and repulsion, sparking, and electric fields. Physics only content.
