Physics Paper 1 · P2 · Lesson 2.15
Return here when you are ready to practise the equations one at a time.
Write the values, choose an equation, substitute, then calculate.
Current: A · voltage: V · resistance: Ω.
Use seconds for time, watts for power and joules for energy. 1 minute = 60 s; 1 kW = 1000 W.
This is extra practice with core content, not Higher Tier-only material.
No timer. Read the explanation after each answer.
Daily 5 · Exam practice · Extra calculation practice · A4 revision sheet
Start with lessons 2.1–2.6 for the circuit basics. Lesson 2.15 offers extra calculation practice. The P2 specification content is shared by Foundation and Higher Tier; extra practice is not Higher Tier-only.
AQA Combined Science Trilogy specification · 6.2.1.2–6.2.2; 6.2.4.1–6.2.4.2. Original notes, questions and diagrams. Circuit animations are simplified; motion is deliberately slowed. Measurements and example values are illustrative. All practical circuits use suitable supervised low-voltage apparatus.
