Fixed resistor – limits current flowing in a circuit
To be able to draw and interpret circuit diagrams. To know what is meant by current, charge and potential difference. To be able to calculate charge flow. Thermistor – an electrical resistor whose resistance is greatly reduced by heating. Fixed resistor – limits current flowing in a circuit Variable resistor – varies current flowing in a circuit Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) -

Other Components and their symbols:
To be able to draw and interpret circuit diagrams. To know what is meant by current, charge and potential difference. To be able to calculate charge flow. Keywords: Current, potential difference, circuit, charge, amperes, coulombs Other Components and their symbols: Diode – allows current in ONE DIRECTION ONLY. Light Emitting Diode (LED) – Emits light and only allows current in ONE DIRECTION. Fuse – a wire that melt when current is TOO high.
