Question

HURRY PLS!!! Carla draws two circuit diagrams that connect the same components in different ways, as shown. Which statements about the circuits are correct? Check all that apply.
Circuit A is a series circuit.

Circuit B is a series circuit.

The bulbs in Circuit A shine brighter than those in Circuit B.

The total resistance in Circuit A is greater than that in Circuit B.

When a bulb in Circuit B goes out, the other bulbs go out.

When a bulb in Circuit A goes out, the other bulbs keep shining.

Answer 1

Answer:

Circuit A is a series circuit and The total resistance in Circuit A is greater than that in Circuit B

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

• Circuit A is a series circuit
• The total resistance in Circuit A is greater than that in Circuit B

Explanation:

A series circuit is a closed circuit in which the current follows in only one path. In a series circuit, the current through each load is the same and the total voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each load. If one component of a series circuit becomes nonfunctional, the rest of components do not work. So the circuit A is a series circuit.

Explaining the second statement :

Each resistor in a series circuit has the same amount of current flowing through it, whereas the current flowing through each resistor in a parallel circuit is different, depending on the resistance. So we can say that when resistors are connected in parallel, more current flows from the source than flow for any of them individually, so the total resistance is lower.
