A Student Builds a Circuit Allowing the Lightbulbs to Light, the Buzzers to Make Sound, and the Motors to Turn

A student constructs the circuit shown for a science demonstration. With the switches in these positions, which lights are on?

• All the lights

• Lights 1 and 2 only

• Lights 3 and 4 only

• None of the lights

A student wants to build a circuit with four lightbulbs and one bell. The student wants to place a switch in the circuit so that only one light will still be on and the bell will still ring when the switch is opened. Which of these circuits should the student build?

To make a circuit complete you must have a-

• complete path

• switch

• bulb

When the switch is closed the light-

• turns on

• stays off

• burns out

The plastic around the wire is-

• a conductor

• an insulator
