Bulb A in the top circuit above is replaced by a battery, as shown in the bottom circuit above. Does the brightness of light bulbs B and C increase, decrease, or remain the same? Please include separate reasoning (part 2) and conclusions (part 3) for each bulb.
Explanation26.5.2.Circuit 2.
Figure26.5.2.Circuit diagram.
The circuit above includes five identical linear resistors with resistance 5 \(\Omega\text{.}\) The battery provides 32 V.
Identify the resistor(s) with the lowest current and determine this amount of current. Show your work and describe your problem-solving process.
Tip.
Create a voltge diagram for each branch of this circuit.
Explanation26.5.3.Create a Circuit.
You have two identical batteries, two identical resistors, and two identical capacitors (you also have infinite ideal wires). Sketch the circuit that includes all of the circuit elements that will cause the capacitors to charge in the least amount of time (safely!).
