Question
Carlos built a simple circuit with two resistors (R1 , R2) and a switch (S). He opened the switch S and current flowed through resistor R1 but not through resistor R2. Which circuit did Carlos most likely build?
Answers
GPT 3.5
Carlos most likely built a series circuit where resistor R1 is connected in series with the switch and resistor R2 is connected in parallel to the switch. When the switch is opened, current flows only through the path with resistor R1, bypassing resistor R2. This configuration allows for different amounts of current to flow through each resistor when the switch is opened or closed.
