  • 8(a)[3]

    (RY) decreases

    change in V consistent with stated effect on RY

    change in RY / Rtotal consistent with their stated effect on RY

    OR

    change in proportion of the total p.d. across Y (or proportion of total p.d. across fixed resistor) consistent with their stated effect on RY

  • 8(b)(i)[3]

    (n =) 1.9 × 1019

    I = Q / t

    C1 (n =) 3(.0) / 1.6 × 10–19 OR (n =) Q / 1.6 × 10–19

    C1

  • 8(b)(ii)[2]

    (P =) 36 W

    P = IV OR (P =) IV OR 3(.0) × 12

    C1
