Gizmos Light Circuits. Questions and Answers 2023/2024

Gizmos Light Circuits. Questions and Answers 2023/2024 Suppose a single light bulb burns out. How do you think this will affect lights that are strung along a single wire? - Answer All of the other lights will go out. This is an example of a series circuit. How will a single burned-out bulb affect the string of lights if each light is attached to its own wire? - Answer There will be no change in the brightness of the other lights. This is an example of a parallel circuit. Click the light switch to turn it to ON. What happens? - Answer The light bulb starts to glow. How does changing the battery's voltage affect the current? - Answer The higher the battery voltage, the greater the flow of current in the circuit. How does changing the battery's voltage affect the brightness of the light? - Answer The higher the battery voltage, the brighter the bulb shines. Remove the wire. What happens? - Answer The current stops and the bulb stops glowing. How do you think increasing the resistance in a circuit will affect the current in the wire? - Answer The flow of the current will decrease due to the resistance. Is the current the same throughout, or does it change? - Answer The same
