Question

In a series circuit, there is just one path, so the charge flow is constant everywhere (charge is not lost or gained). Circuit B was made by adding 2 more identical resistors in series to circuit A. Circuit A Circuit B Figure 14.3 Series Circuit How is the charge flow out of the battery and back into it affected by adding more bulbs in series? If the resistors were light bulbs, how do you expect the brightness of the bulbs to be affected by adding more bulbs in series? How is the brightness in the 2 circuits related to charge flow or current? How does the current in circuit B compare to circuit A? How is current related to the resistance of the circuit? If the resistance of a circuit is quadrupled, by what factor does the current change? Fill out the table for the circuit diagrammed at the right.
