1 a- gravity
b- magnetism
2- nucleus, positive ,electrons ,electron, equal to, no, electrons, electrons,
positive
3 a- same
b- repel
4- The charges must be the same, because the two rods repel each other.
5- The space around a charged object where it can affect things.
9Jc-5 Electricity questions
1 a- current, series
b- current, parallel
c- voltage, parallel
d- voltage, series, voltage
2- C
3- 2 A, the current is the same everywhere in a series circuit.
4- 4 A, as adding another cell (assumes cell provides same voltage) will double the voltage, so
the current will double.
5 a- They will be dimmer/half as bright, as the resistance is higher and there is the same number
of cells, so the current will be smaller.
b- 0.5 A
c- both 0.5 A
9Jc-5 Electricity questions
6- There is the same voltage across each bulb, or the voltage across each branch
of a parallel circuit is the
same as the voltage supplied by the cell, and each branch has only one bulb in it
(whereas there are two in B), so the current will be greater.
7 a- 0.8 A
b- 0.4 A – the current in the main part of the circuit splits up to go through the
branches in the parallel circuit (and as both branches have the same components
in them, the current will divide equally).
c- 6 and 7 will read 1.6 A; 8 and 9 will read 0.8 A.
8 a- The switch should be in the same branch as bulb X.
b- The switch should be adjacent to the cell, or o any part of the circuit before the
split.
9Jd-5 Calculating resistances 1
1 a- V, A, Ω
b- 6, 5, 5, 3
2 a- 4 Ω, because a longer wire has a higher resistance.
b- 1 Ω, because thicker wires have lower resistance.
3 a- high
b- plastic
c- Conductors have low resistances and insulators have high resistances.
This is a high resistance.
Plastic is the only insulator in the list.
9Je-4
1 Diagram completed showing the magnetic field symmetrically below the electromagnet.
b- A bar magnet always has a magnetic field, the electromagnet only has one when a current is flowing.
4 a- The magnetic field from the coil of wire/ electromagnet attracts the iron block and the metal
b- A high current can be switched on without a person having to touch any part of the high-current
circuit.
9Je-5 Electric bells
1- labels from bottom left: electromagnet, cell, switch
2- line drawn on the circuit from the cell through switch, springy iron strip, coil, and back to the
cell
3 a- It will be magnetised/become magnetic.
b- It will attract the springy iron strip.
c- The striker attached to the end of the iron strip will hit the gong.
4- There is a gap in the circuit/there is a gap between the contacts.
5 a- It will stop being magnetic.
b- It will spring back to its original position.
9Je-5 Electric bells
6- The current will be able to flow again, so the electromagnet will be magnetised
again, the springy iron strip will be attracted to it and the striker will hit the gong.
The movement of the springy iron strip will break the circuit, and it will then spring
back to its original position. This will keep on happening.
