A. Setup D is the only circuit that will function because it is the only
wire made of a conductive material, and the current will flow through
the resistors in series.
B. Setup C will function because the wire is made of a conductive
material and the ionic solution conducts electricity, so current will
flow.
C. Setup B will function better than setup D because resistors in
parallel allow less current to flow through the circuit than resistors in
series.
D. Setups B and C will function because the wires are made of highly
conductive materials, and both variable objects allow current to flow.
Read the passage and use the diagram to answer the next two
questions.
Standard light bulbs can be incandescent, LED, or fluorescent.
Incandescent bulbs work by running current through a filament. As
shown in the image, the light bulb is connected to an electrical circuit
that acts as a source of current. Two wires act as contacts and
supports to the filament. The current runs up one wire, through the
filament, and down the other wire. The filament material must be
able to be pulled thin and wrapped tightly into a coil. The more
resistive the wire, the hotter the bulb will be. As electricity runs
through the filament, light is produced proportional to the current in
the wire.
The total resistance is lower for setup A than setup B because the
resistors are in parallel. In setup B, they are in series, so the
resistance will be higher. According to Ohm's law, the current and
total resistance are inversely proportional. So, the current through
setup A will be higher than setup B. Most wires are made of very
conductive material. If the material of the wires were to change to
one with high resistivity (ex: nonmetal), the electrons would not flow
through the wires as easily.
E. Boron and copper’s valence electrons can freely move the same
amount, so they are equally as conductive.
D. When electrons are around other electrons, they repel each other.
Increasing the amount of electron interactions will increase electric
friction. A decrease in free-flowing electrons will decrease the
conductivity of a material.
The wire of the simple circuit should be made of a material with more
__________. In order for the circuit to produce the largest current,
the two resistors are put in__________ with each other. Both
resistors should have a very __________cross-sectional area and a
________________ to increase the flow of electrons.

nearly the speed of light.
