Electrical quantities — practice question

Fig. 9.1 gives current-potential difference (p.d.) graphs for both a resistor and a thermistor.
(a)[2]

Calculate the resistance of the thermistor when the p.d. across it is 7.0 V.

(b)[2]

In Table 9.1, place ticks in the boxes that show the effect on the resistances of the resistor and the thermistor when the p.d. across them rises from 0 to 7.0 V.

(c(i))[2]

Calculate the current drawn from the supply.

(c(ii))[2]

Calculate the energy transferred by the supply in 5.0 minutes.
