• It will get brighter

• The brightness will stay the same

• None of the light bulb will be on

Which one is the circuit diagram of this picture?

• 
• 
• 
• 

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.

This is an example of a _______ circuit

• open

• series

• parallel

• switch

What will happen if one light bulb is removed from this circuit?

• The other bulbs will go out.

• The other bulbs will stay on

• The other bulbs will get dimmer.

• The battery will become stronger.

What is the unit of Current or charge flow?
