GCSE Physics - Required Practical 4c Diode

(0)
I have reworked the required practical from AQA as using cells did not provide sufficient variability or control for collecting data on a diode. This practical sheet provides detailed instructions of how to set up the circuit and gather the data including how to do this using LEDs instead of a diode.

This has been produced as an extract of the AQA required practical document. It is designed to be printed two pages to a page and flip on short edge to form a booklet that students can then stick in their books. This is for required practical 4 Resistance. The content is from AQA and the layout and formatting is my own. AQA may change the contents of their practical this is correct as of 07-07-2016. I have split it into 3 different practicals as that is how I prefer to teach it. They are 4a, 4b and 4c.
