The circuit shown is used to control the brightness of two identical lamps. The variable resistor is adjusted until the lamps op

erate at their correct voltage of 3.0V
1) When the lamps operate at the correct voltage, the reading on the ammeter is 1.2A. Calculate the current in one lamp.

Since the lamps are identical, the current divides equally through them... 0.6A through each lamp.

You don't have to worry about voltage drop or the value of the resistor to make that 9 volt drop to happen. The current is divided evenly by the two lamps. If the ammeter reads 1.2 amps before the current goes into the lamps then since this is a parallel circuit, the lamps will divide up the current evenly between them.

That's another way of saying each one will get 1.2 amps /2 = 0.6 amps.

A photograph is taken by letting light fall on a light-sensitive medium, which then records the image onto that medium. True or
Jet001 [13]

Answer;

The above statement is true.

-A photograph is taken by letting light fall on a light-sensitive medium, which then records the image onto that medium.

Explanation;

-A photograph is created when light is allowed to fall on a light-sensitive medium. The pattern of light creates an image that is recorded by the photographic device. How light or dark a photograph is depends on how much light was allowed to fall on the light-sensitive medium.

-A camera is a light-tight box that contains a light-sensitive material or device and a way of letting in a desired amount of light at particular times to create an image on the light-sensitive material.
