Which of the following statements is correct? (A) (B) If two bulbs are connected in series to one electric cell, they are brighter than another bulb which is connected to one electric cell. If two bulbs are connected in parallel to one electric cell, they are dimmer than another bulb which is connected to one electric cell (C) If two electric cells and a bulb are connected in series, the bulb will be dimmer than another bulb which is connected to only one electric cell (D) If two electric cells are connected in parallel and connected to a bulb, the bulb will be equally bright as another bulb which is connected to only one electric cell. ( ) Which of the following advantages or disadvantages of series and parallel circuits are correct? One advantage of series circuit: Only a single switch is needed to control all electrical appliances in the circuit. One disadvantage of series circuit: If one electrical appliance is faulty, all other electrical appliances will not function. One advantage of parallél circuit: If more electrical appliances are added, each of them will still receive the full voltage from the electric source. One disadvantage of parallel circuit: Many switches are required to control the electrical appliances. | and Ill only Il and IV only |, Il and IV only 1, UL, il and WV ( ) A circuit diagram is shown below.

(A) (B) (c) (D) Electric current is the flow of electrons or positive charges through a Circuit, Electric current flows from the positive terminal to the negative terminal of an electrical source. Electric current increases when more electrons are flowing through the Circuit. ° Electric currents of different sizes are required for different electrical appliances to work. ( ) Which of the following statements regarding the potential difference or potential energy is correct? (A) (8) (Cc) (D) Potential difference is defined as the energy needed by a charge to move from one point to another in a circuit. Accurrent can flow through a circuit because the potential at the positive terminal and the negative terminal of the battery are the same. After passing through an electrical appliance, the electrons have higher potential energy. Charges at the negative terminal of the battery have higher potential energy than those at the positive terminal of the battery. ( ) The resistance of an electrical conductor is affected by the nature, length, diameter and temperature of the conductor. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? (A) (B) (c) (D) A better electrical conductor has a lower resistance than a poorer conductor. The longer the conductor, the higher will be its resistance. The larger the diameter of the conductor, the higher will be its resistance. The higher the temperature, the higher will be the resistance for metal conductors. ( ) 12.
