Hi
My physics exam is a practical where will be testing the R= V/I by setting up a Dc series, I have no idea on setting one up, I have never set one up before. Im so worried. Any help will be welcomed.

surely your class must have done this prac, maybe u were away when they did it. Ask someone in your class if u can have a look at their prac write-up. Also, study circuit diagrams in your textbook, this will help.

Maybe u could ask your teacher if u could go into the lab after school or something to practice setting up circuits. Coz u seriously dont want to walk into the prac test having never set up a circuit, u might not know how to set up the required circuit properly.

At the very least, u should know the theory backwards. Aim, materials, method, discussion, safety (eg electric shock from power supply) and sources of error (eg experimental errors, parallax errors etc) and how to reduce these errors are all things they can ask.

Good luck!

Connect our circuit aid raise your hand to have your teacher check the circuit. (If you cannot connect the circuit correctly, your teacher will do it for you.) (1)

WOW, does that mean if you can not set it up the teacher does it for you and you only lose one mark thats awesome.

PLEASE PLEASE be like that with my prac.

yes thats what it was for my particular assessment. if someone couldn't do one part they decided that they should not loose all the marks. (because you need that part to do the rest)

Who was the teacher back then, was there a Romberg?
