Grade 8 Electricity & circuits (Physics) worksheet in three levels

The same 20-question worksheet on electricity & circuits in Support, Core and Challenge versions. Question by question, each version keeps the topic and changes the difficulty.

Compare the three levels

Support

Easier questions on the same topics, for students who need more practice with the basics.

Sample questions

  1. An ohmic resistor of 27 Ω has potential difference 20 V. Find current. This is a paper calculation, not a construction instruction. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in A.
  2. A constant current of 2.4 A flows for 84 s. Find transferred charge. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in C.
  3. A constant current of 1.1 A flows for 129 s. Find transferred charge. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in C.

Core

Questions at the expected level for the grade.

Sample questions

  1. In a theoretical circuit, 26 Ω and 11 Ω are in series across an ideal 36 V source. Find their total electrical power. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in W.
  2. In a theoretical circuit, 9 Ω and 22 Ω are in series across an ideal 16 V source. Find their total electrical power. Round to 3 decimal places if needed. Answer in W.
  3. Two branches are connected in parallel to a battery. The branch currents are 1.4 A and 1 A. What current flows through the battery? (Assume ideal wires and an ideal battery.)

Using the three versions

  • Start everyone with the same short explanation, then hand out Support, Core or Challenge.
  • Question numbers line up across the versions, so you can go through the answers with the whole class.
  • The PDF has a cover page and each version on its own pages; the answer keys PDF has all three keys.
