Circuit diagrams
Draw a circuit diagram for the descriptions below. Remember to use the proper symbols and ensure that your diagrams have a rectangular shape. Dont put in the arrows showing the flow of electrons.
1. a) Three cells in parallel, two light bulbs (loads) in series, with one switch
b) Three cells in series and three light bulbs in parallel, with each light bulb being
Three cells in parallel, two light bulbs (loads) in series, with one switch. able to be switched on independently.
c) Two cells in series, a light bulb in series with one switch, and two light bulbs in parallel.
d) Two cells in series, parallel to another two cells in series, and two bulbs in parallel and another two bulbs in series. There is one switch.
2. In circuit (a), assume the voltage in the circuit is 1.5 V in total. How much voltage is passing through each light bulb?
3. In circuit (b), assume the cells produce 4.5 V in total. How much voltage is passing through each light bulb?
