If The Switch S1 Is Closed and Switch S2 Remains Open, What Lights Will Turn On?
If The Switch S1 Is Closed and Switch S2 Remains Open, What Lights Will Turn On?
If The Switch S1 Is Closed and Switch S2 Remains Open, What Lights Will Turn On?
The Answer
The correct answer is #1 L1 and L2. In order for the other lights to be on you would need the other switch to be
turned on. Its important to note that in order for a light to turn on, it needs a return path. In this example, L1
and L2 have a feed and a return path and L3 and L4 do not have a return path. The return path is broken by
the S2 switch.
You want current to flow through the circuit without turning on the light, what switches must you turn
on?
Ans S1 & S3

A water pump can be used as an analogy of an electrical circuit. Clarify what the valve and
water wheel represent respectively.
Consider this diagram showing an electrical circuit. Predict what would happen if one of the 6-
volt globes were to burn out.
This diagram shows the operation of an electric bell. In this circuit, identify when the current
will flow.
The switch is pressed.
I = V/R
R = 330 , V = 6 - 1.5V (LED drop voltage) So V = 4.5V
I = 4.5/330
I = 0.013 A or 13 mA
Vout=Vin-Vsi,
Silicon diode potential barrier drop is 0.7V
Vout=12-0.7
Vout=11.3V
The flashlight shown uses a 6 volt battery and has a bulb with a resistance of 150 W. When the flashlight
is on, how much current will be drawn from the battery?
VR 6V
IR 0.04 A 40 mA
R 150
