A student builds a circuit made up of a battery, two light bulbs, and a switch. What will the student most likely observe in this circuit?

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be on

• Light bulb 1 will be off, but light bulb 2 will be on

• Light bulb 1 and light bulb 2 will both be off

• Light bulb 1 will be on, but light bulb 2 will be off

The diagram shows a series circuit with three lit bulbs. How many of the bulbs will remain lit if the wire is cut a the point shown by the arrow?

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

In the picture, if you replace the paper clip with a plastic spoon, what happens? 

• The bulb doesn't light
• The bulb is dimmer
• The wires get hot
• There is no charge

Why is electrical wiring usually made from copper?

• Because copper is shiny

• Because copper conducts electricity

• Because copper is not magnetic

• Because copper insulates electricity

Will the light bulbs light up in this image?

• Yes, both of them will

• Yes, but only the one on the right

• No, neither of them will

• Yes, but only the one on the left
