Circuits

The picture shows an electrical circuit. This circuit is a series circuit because: 

• It has 3 light bulbs.
• The same current flows through all three light bulbs.
• It uses a single battery.
• The electrical current has more than one path to flow through

In a parallel circuit if one light bulb goes OUT; then they ALL go out. TRUE OR FALSE?

• TRUE
• FALSE

In a Series circuit the more lightbulbs you add the brighter they get 

• False 
• True 

What is a Parallel circuit? 

• Has only one path 
• Has more than one path 
• Allows energy to travel through easily 
• Has only one light bulb

What kind of circuit is this?

• series
• parallel

What type of circuit is show in the image?

• Series Circuit
• Parallel Circuit

The equivalent resistance in this circuit is 

• 100 ohms
• 450 ohms
• 400 ohms
• 30 ohms

The voltage drop across the 180 ohm resistor is 

• 9 V
• 6 V
• 2 V
• 12 V

The current going through the 90 ohm resistor is 

• 10 amps
• 0.1 amps
• 0.2 amps

Does this statement best describe a parallel or a series circuit.
 
Different voltages are dropped across each resistor.

• Parallel circuit
• Series circuit
