2short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.

What is q1?
Show answer
State what happens to the resistance of an NTC thermistor as it is cooled. [1 mark]
What is q2?
Show answer
An LDR (top arm) and a 1.0kΩ1.0\,\text{k}\Omega resistor (bottom, output) are across 6.0V6.0\,\text{V}. In bright light the LDR is 1.0kΩ1.0\,\text{k}\Omega. State the output voltage.
