Jonathon the electrician
is confused. Should he connect the fuse box in series or in parallel to
the circuit inside the house? Explain. |

The circuit pictured on the right contains 4 light globes connected to a power source If each light globe is 6 V, what should the minimum voltage provided by the power source be so that each light globe glows with maximum brightness? |
||
A 9 V light globe is connected, together with a number of other identical light globes, to a 36 V power source. A voltmeter measures the voltage across this light globe at 4.5 V. How many light globes are
connected?
What should the voltage of the power source be in order for all light globes to glow with maximum brightness? |

The voltage across a lamp is measured with a voltmeter. Two more identical lamps are added and the voltage across the same lamp measured again. What is the voltage across the lamp? |
||
A light globe of unknown resistance is connected toa 9 V battery. An ammeter was connected to the circuit and mesured the current at 2 Amps. Three more identical light globes were connected and the current measured once more. What was the reading on the ammeter? | ||
