what is the definition of a catalyst

current x time= charge
diodes allow electrons to flow in only 1 direction
the potential difference across a component is measured using a volt meter
the current through a circuit is measured by an ammeter
A diode allows electricity to pass in one direction only
The current through a component is measured using an ammeter
In parallel circuits there are multiple paths for the electric current to follow, this means that even if some parts of the circuit break down other components still work
An LDR (lightdependantresistor) changes a circuits resistance depending on the light. If it was dark, it restists a lot
