Compared to a single lamp connected to a battery, two identical lamps connected in series to the same battery will carry
A) less current.
B) more current.
C) the same current.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When two identical lamps are connected in series, the total resistance of the circuit increases compared to a single lamp. According to Ohm's law, the current (I) through a circuit is inversely proportional to the total resistance (R) of the circuit when the voltage (V) is constant. Therefore, with higher resistance, the current will be less than that through a single lamp connected to the same battery.
