Test: Electricity and Circuits - Question 1

Three identical bulbs namely P, Q and R are connected to a battery as shown. What will happen when the circuit is closed?

Detailed Solution: Question 1

When the circuit is closed, an electric current starts flowing in the circuit from the positive terminal of battery. The current which passes through bulb P is the sum of current flowing in bulbs Q and R. As the brightness depends upon the current flowing through the bulb, so P will be bright but Q and R will be dim.

Test: Electricity and Circuits - Question 2

In the given diagram, two switches S1 and S2 and two bulbs X and Y are connected as shown in the given figure. If switch S1 is closed and switch S2 is kept open, then

Detailed Solution: Question 2

Since switch S2 is open and S1 is closed, the current will pass through bulb Y. But the circuit is incomplete and there is no complete path for current to flow for bulb X. Hence, only bulb Y will alow.

Test: Electricity and Circuits - Question 3

One of the four identical light bulbs in a series circuit has blown off as shown in the given figure.

Which of the given statements is correct about the bulbs?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

All as the bulbs are in series and bulb R is fused, so the circuit will not be complete and all the bulbs P, Q, R and S will not glow.

Test: Electricity and Circuits - Question 4

Four bulbs P, Q, R and S are connected in a circuit as shown in the given figure. If bulb P fuses, then which of the other bulb(s) will remain lit?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

 If bulb P fuses, the circuit of bulb Q breaks while the circuit of bulbs R and S remain same as before. Hence Q will not lit while R and S will remain lit.

Test: Electricity and Circuits - Question 5

Given diagram shows the lateral section of a torch containing cells. The torch is not glowing when the switch is ON. Which of the following statements may be correct regarding the reasons?

(i) Bulb of the torch is fused.
(ii) Cells are not connected properly.
(iii) The metal parts of the torch do not make proper contact with the cell.

Detailed Solution: Question 5

The torch is not glowing because either its bulb is fused or cells are connected wrongly or metal spring of torch does not make proper contact with the cell.
