Draw and interpret circuit diagrams using standard circuit symbols.
A student uses a circuit containing an ammeter, a voltmeter and a cell to take measurements to determine the resistance of a length of nichrome wire.
Draw a circuit diagram to show how the components should be connected. Use the symbol for a resistor to represent the nichrome wire.
resistor connected to cell in a closed loop and correct circuit symbols used for all components
ammeter connected in series with resistor and voltmeter connected in parallel with resistor
