Question

For the circuit on the right, indicate whether the statements below arc TRUE or FALSE. If a statement is TRUE, briefly describe the evidence from this lab which supports this statement. If a statement is FALSE, give a correct statement, and briefly describe the evidence from this lab which supports this new statement. Since current is used up by the bulb, the current in wire B is smaller than the current in wire A. The current flows toward the bulb in both wires A and B. If wire B is disconnected, but wire A is left connected, the bulb will still light, but if wire A is disconnected and wire B is left connected, the bulb will not light. A current sensor will read the same magnitude if connected to measure the current in wire A, and then connected to measure the current in wire B.

Explanation / Answer

Here ,

2.a) True ,

the current flow out of the positive terminal of the battery and flow back into the negative terminal of the battery.

b)
False ,

current is not used by the bulb , the current in wire B is same as the current in wire A.

c)

False ,

the current flow out of the positive terminal of the battery and flow back into the negative terminal of the battery.

d)

False ,

bulb will not glow as the circuit is not connected

e)

True ,

as the current in wire A and wire B will be same
