Course
Physics 4PH1

Exam points

  • Add an ammeter in series or a voltmeter in parallel to measure current or voltage.
  • Recognise component symbols such as LEDs and light dependent resistors in circuit diagrams.
  • Draw an LED in the correct branch and orientation so it indicates current in a resistor.

Recognise and use standard circuit symbols question 1

[Maximum number: 3]

The diagram shows a circuit used to investigate the relationship between current and voltage for a light-emitting diode (LED).

Figure for Question Recognise and use standard circuit symbols question 1 — Edexcel IGCSE Physics

Draw meters on the diagram to measure the voltage of the LED and the current in the LED.
