2.4.67 - Current and p.d. distributions in circuits

(a) understand how the distribution of current in a circuit is a consequence of charge conservation (b) understand how the distribution of potential differences in a circuit is a consequence of energy conservation.

Use - current and p.d. distributions in circuits to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because - current and p.d. distributions in circuits determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply - current and p.d. distributions in circuits to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: - Current and p.d. distributions in circuits is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
