Q25.6
In the circuit shown, the two bulbs
A and B are identical. The arrow
indicates the direction of current
flow. Compared to bulb A,
A. bulb B glows more brightly because the current speeds up
as it enters lower potential region.
B. bulb B glows less brightly because the bulb A already used
up some of the current.
C. bulb B glows just as brightly.
D. answer depends on whether the mobile charges in the wires
are positively or negatively charged
