AWhen the switch is closed, bulb B
goes out because all of the current goes through the wire parallel to the bulb. Thus, the total resistance of the circuit decreases, the current

The bulbs are connected in series, so the same current passes through both of them. Different brightnesses indicate different filament resistances. Bulb A is NOT brighter because it is “first in line” for the current of the battery! After all, electrons deliver the energy, and they flow from negative to positive --- in the opposite direction!

If the four light bulbs in the figure below are identical, which circuit puts out more total light?
1. I 2. II 3. Same
Circuit II
The resistance of two light bulbs in parallel in smaller than that of two bulbs in series. Thus the
current through the battery is greater for circuit I than for circuit II.
Since the power dissipated is the product of current and voltage, it follows that more is
dissipated in circuit I.
