Question

In a series circuit without a switch, using the ammeter, where is the current the same?



(2 points)

It varies by component.

Everywhere in the circuit.

Only at the bulbs.

Only at the battery.

Answer 1

Everywhere in the circuit.

In a series circuit there is only one path for charge, so the same current flows through every component (and any ammeter placed anywhere in that path will read the same).
