1.   What are the key points to Ohm’s Law?

2.   A 15 ohm resistor is connected across a 3 V supply.  What is the current?

 

3.   Look at the voltage current graph:

 

Why does the line go through the origin?

What does the gradient tell us?

 

4.   Why is the graph of a light bulb shaped like this?

 

5.    A lamp takes a current of 0.3 A at a voltage of 6 V.  What is its resistance?  Some students measure the resistance of the lamp with an ohmmeter and find that the resistance is only 4 ohms.  Explain why this happens.
