a.
is greatest in C₁.

b.
is greatest in C₂.

c.
is greatest in R₁.

Question 2

The circuit below contains 5 identical light bulbs. The emf is 110 V. Which light bulb(s) is(are) brightest?

a.
A: The one closest to the positive terminal of the battery.

b.
A and C: The bulbs closest to the positive terminal of the battery.

c.
A and B: Because they are closest to the terminals of the battery.

d.
C and D: Because they receive current from A and B and from E.

e.
E: Because the potential difference across E is that of the battery.
