I can identify the circuit diagram from a picture of a circuit
When identifying circuit diagrams from pictures of circuit, the most important things to do are:
- look carefully
- check every detail
- follow the wires and check how components are connected.
It is a game of spot the difference and you must make sure you look for the similarities and differences between the pictures and the diagrams.
Things to check:
- which way round the battery is
- how many connections at each junction/connection
- which components are connected together
- which order components are connected in
Below are some examples of circuit diagrams which have been drawn from the corresponding pictures of circuits:
Remember to check all details and look for components in the pictures being connected the same as the circuit diagram.
Why not have a go at drawing these circuit diagrams yourself from the pictures without looking at the answers.
