What can you infer about the amount of electric current flowing through each bulb in the circuit as each bulb is added?

The current is the same going into a bulb as it is coming out.

∙ 14y agoYes; a closed circuit is one in which the electricity is allowed to flow through a conductor.
Wiki User
∙ 10y agoThat really depends on the circuit, for example on whether the bulbs are connected in series, in parallel, or in some combination of series and parallel.

∙ 10y agoAny inference is based on observations,
which you've neglected to describe.

What is a real life example of a step function?
The current flowing through an electric circuit when you flick the switch on or off.
What are the function of ammeter?
The purpose of an ammeter is to sense and display the magnitude of the current flowing through it. When connected in series with a branch of an electrical circuit, the meter displays the magnitude (and direction) of the current in that path ... which you can't otherwise tell just by looking at the circuit.
What is a component included in a circuit and designed to prevent too much current from flowing through the circuit?
A fuse.
What a device that protects an electric circuit from too much current?
Circuit Breakers and Fuses limit the amount of current flowing through the circuit.
Which part of a circuit is a current?
Current is the flow of electric charge or the rate of the flow of an electric charge through a conductor.
Is somthing that flows through an electric circuit an eletrical current?
Yes. Current consists of electrons flowing in a circuit.
Why is it that the current flowing through a parallel circuit is the different in all parts of the circuit?
Because there is many path for flowing current through circuit.
What flows through a circuit and causes a magnetic field?
An electric current flowing through a circuit causes a magnetic field. This is due to the movement of electric charges, usually electrons, in the circuit. The magnetic field produced is perpendicular to the direction of the current flow.
What is the part of a circuit that connects or disconnects the circuit?
Switches, fuses and circuit breakers are examples of some of the electrical parts which can connect or disconnect a circuit to a source of current. A diode does it for alternating current, but only for one half of each cycle. "Connecting" allows an electric current to flow through the circuit. "Disconnecting" stops an electric current from flowing through the circuit.
What is a real life example of a step function?
The current flowing through an electric circuit when you flick the switch on or off.
A complete path for electricity to flow?
currents can be thought of simply by flowing through a wire, though not always the case. It is convenient to think of current density which is the amount of current flowing through a cross sectional area, like water through the opening of a pipe, since electric current flows through many 3-dimensional objects.
An electric DC circuit is attached to a 12 volt battery and has a 3 ohm resistor in it find the current flowing through the circuit?
If the 3-ohm resistor is the ONLY thing in the circuit, then the current flowing through it is (12 volts)/(3 ohms) = 4 amperes. If there are other things in the circuit besides the resistor, then the current depends on all of them.
What is the definition for current intensity?
Current intensity refers to the amount of electric current flowing through a conductor in a given time, measured in amperes (A). It is a measure of the rate at which electric charge flows in a circuit.
What can be used to test if electricity is flowing in a circuit?
A Galvanometer can be used to detect the presence of current in a circuit. An ammeter can be used to know the magnitude of the current flowing through the circuit.
What is purpose of the Earth wiring?
When there is too much current flowing through a circuit the earth wire will take the current away and prevent someone from getting an electric shock
What do ammeters do?
Ammeters measure the current flowing through a circuit
