    Key Questions:

    1. How would a high resistance of a component affect the current and potential difference across the component?
      • The greater the resistance of the component the smaller the current for a given potential difference (pd) across the component.
    2. How could you use a graph to identify if a circuit was linear or non-linear and relate the curves to their function and properties?
      • Draw a graph to identify if the line is straight or curved (linear or not) then relate this to what the elements function is Diode - current flowing only in one direction (linear then plateaus) resistor (constant temperature) restricts the flow of current, filament lamp curving graph showing that current and potential difference are not directily proportional.
