Objective Of Assignment :
To learn how to connect the component become a

complete circuit. To apply how many connection can be done with specific and limited component. To identify connection can be used in circuit To prove the ohms law and kirchoff law in circuit.

Question 1 :
Using only two(2) betteries, two(2) light bulbs and not more then four(4) wire:

i) identify how both light bulbs can be made to glow.

Component are using :

1. Two batteries 9 V each
2. Two bulbs

3. Four wires
4. Ammeter

5. Voltmeter

Connection Made Both Bulbs Glow

1) Two bulbs and two batteries connect In series

connection 2) Two batteries connect in parallel and two bulbs connect in series connection. 3) Two batteries connect in series and two bulbs connect in parallel connection 4) Two batteries connect in parallel and two bulbs connect in parallel connection.

1) Two bulbs and two batteries connect In series connection

Question 1 :
Using only two(2) betteries, two(2)

light bulbs and not more then four(4) wire: ii) identify how light bulbs can be made to glow at their brightest

To made both bulbs brighter

1. Their connection among batteries and bulbs 2. Source of voltage are higher

3. Low of resistance exist in circuit.

4. Higher value of total current.

* Bulbs connect in parallel and batteries connect in series connection is most brighter glow of both bulbs due of high value of total voltage and total current among others

Result of Four Connections

Result of Four Connections

* No 3 connection is most brighter glow of both bulbs due of high value of total voltage and total current among others

Question 1(iii) the different between question (i) and (ii)

we need create and build we need select among

a circuit that can make bulbs glow.

those circuits which one made bulbs glow brightly and identify how it made brightest.

Question 1(iv): Compare question (i) and (ii) in term of current, potential difference and resistance.

Question 1(v): Identify the difference by showing the different numbers on a meter (using the PhET circuit simulation. Connection two bulbs and two batteries in series circuit:
