• it splits across the components

• it changes constantly

• it is different in different places

• it is the same everywhere

What is the measuring device shown?

• bulb

• cell

• ammeter

• voltmeter

When the second bulb is added, they get

• brighter

• dimmer

• broken

• cold

Current is measured in

• Volts

• Watts

• Seconds

• Amps

If the switch was opened, what would happen?

• the ammeter would measure a current flowing

• current would no longer flow, so everything would be off

• the bulbs would stay on because they're connected to the cell

In this circuit, the bulb(s) that light up are:

• 1 only

• 2 only

• 1 and 2
