Chapter 20.2, Problem 1aTH
- The circuit at right consists of a bulb in series with an electrical “black box.”
The following are possible contents for the “black box.” All the bulbs are identical. Box C consists of a single piece of connecting wire.
Suppose that each of the five boxes is placed, in turn, into the circuit. (Only one box is in the circuit at a time.)
a. Draw the appropriate five circuit diagrams below (show the contents of the boxes in place of the box itself).

- Fill out the table for the circuit diagramed at the right.arrow_forwardConsider the circuit configurations below, where two lightbulbs are connected to a single battery in different ways. Based on what you learned about parallel and series connections in lab, which of these two configurations would result in the light bulbs being the brightest? Fully explain your reasoning. Imagine that you are given four 100Ω resistors to build a circuit. Your challenge is to use all four of the resistors in the circuit, but the circuit must have an overall equivalent resistance of 100Ω. Is this possible? If so, draw a diagram of the circuit and explain how the connections result in a 100Ω equivalent resistance. If this is not possible, draw a diagram of a circuit involving all four resistors that has an equivalent resistance as close to 100Ω as is possible.arrow_forwardWhat is the equivalent resistance between the two terminals in the diagram below?
