Why circuit components behave differently
为什么电路元件的表现各不相同
Description
Compare and give reasons for variations in how circuit components function, including brightness of bulbs, loudness of buzzers, and switch positions
Mastery Evidence
- Explain why adding more components in series reduces brightness/loudness (energy shared)
- Compare circuits with different configurations and predict component behaviour
- Give reasoned explanations for observed variations in component function
Assessment Prompt
If your child adds a second bulb to a series circuit and it gets dimmer, can they explain why the energy is being shared between the two bulbs?
