- Potential divider circuits

Understand the principles of a potential divider circuit and understand how to calculate potential differences and resistances in such a circuit.

Use - potential divider circuits to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because - potential divider circuits determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

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

Boundary: - Potential divider circuits is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
