Identical ideal batteries are connected in different arrangements to the same light bulb, as shown in the figure. For which arrangement will the bulb shine the brightest?

• A

• B

• C

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 is divided between the three light bulbs.

Does this diagram represent a series or parallel circuit?

• series circuit
• parallel circuit

• all bulbs are lit equally
• the two top bulbs are brighter
• the single lower bulb is brighter
• the single bulb does not light and the other two are dim
