each cell is 1.5 V.
Question 5

What is the true statement about the potential difference between two points of a connecting
wire of a circuit?
It is not zero unless the voltmeter is connected in series.
It is always zero because the resistance of the connecting wire is negligible.
It is not zero when the switch is open.
It is zero only if the electric circuit is open.
Question 6

Potential difference (
∆
V), change in electric potential energy (
∆
EPE), and charge (q) are related by the following equation:
∆ EPE
∆V =
q
∆ EPE
∆V =
q2
q
∆V =
∆ EPE
∆ V = ∆ EPE × q

Question 8

What is the true statement about the measurement of the potential difference?
It is measured by a multimeter used as an ammeter.
It is measured by a voltmeter connected in series.
It is measured by an ammeter connected in series.
It is measured by a voltmeter connected in parallel.
Question 9

A cell is connected across three identical lamps as shown in the image. When the switch is
closed the potential difference across the
cell is 1.5 V and across the three lamps is
1.5 V . If you open the switch
the potential difference becomes
0V across the three lamps and
1.5 V across the cell.
Question 10
The lamp in circuit (1) glows since the circuit is closed .
The lamp in circuit (2) glows since the switch is closed .
The lamp in circuit (3) doesn't glow since the switch is open .
Question 11

A 9 joules of energy are given to a unit of charge.
A 9 seconds of time are used by a unit of charge.
Question 12
Drag and drop the correct term to complete the sentences.

Voltmeter (V1) in the circuit below reads 0 V and voltmeter (V2) reads
9V . Both voltmeters are in parallel
connections to the circuit.
3V perpendicular 4.5 V 9 mV
series
Question 13
Select the correct answers.

What are the correct statements about the circuit diagram below?

Voltmeter (1) is placed in a series connection across the lamp.
All voltmeters read 3 V because that is the potential difference supplied by the
cell.
Voltmeters (2) and (3) read 0 V because the potential difference across a wire is
zero.
All voltmeters have a reading of 1 V because the potential difference of the cell is
divided in the circuit.
Voltmeter (1) does not work because (2) and (3) have been placed in series.
Voltmeter (1) reads 3 V because the potential difference of the lamp is equal to
that of the cell.
Question 14
