Question

A circuit consists of a wire, two lightbulbs, a switch, and a battery. What

would happen if one of the lightbulbs were replaced with a section of wire?
A. The circuit would have more resistance.
B. The circuit would have less resistance.
C. The circuit would have less voltage,
D. The circuit would have more voltage.

Answer 1

Guy above is correct The circuit would have LESS resistance

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

B. The circuit would have less resistance.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the lightbulb is replaced in the circuit by a wire, the circuit will have less resistance.

Resistance is the the opposition to the flow of current within a circuit. Both a light bulb and wire are two examples of resistors in a circuit.

• A wire has a low value of resistance compared to the bulb.
• This is why the overall resistance will reduce when a light bulb is replaced with a wire.
