What is the resistance of a component if the PD across it is 1818 V and the current is 33 A?

66 Ω\Omega

Which type of resistor produces a straight-line I-V graph through the origin?

Ohmic resistor

In a series circuit, how does the current compare at different points?

Same through all components

Three resistors of 22 Ω\Omega, 33 Ω\Omega, and 55 Ω\Omega are in series. What is RequivalentR_{\text{equivalent}}?

1010 Ω\Omega

Why are ammeters designed to have the lowest possible resistance?

So they don't alter the circuit

A potential divider has R1=6R_1 = 6 kΩ\Omega, R2=3R_2 = 3 kΩ\Omega, Vin=18V_{\text{in}} = 18 V. What is VoutV_{\text{out}}?

66 V

A resistor has bands: Brown-Black-Red-Gold. What is its resistance value?

10001000 Ω\Omega ±\pm5%

In a series circuit, how do the potential differences relate to the supply voltage?

They add up to equal it

What is the maximum output voltage a potential divider can produce from a 99 V input?

Less than 99 V

Why does a light bulb's I-V graph curve instead of forming a straight line?

Resistance increases with temperature
