Before pressing any buttons in the simulation, predict what the circuit will do.
(a) When the circuit is turned on (and the switch is open), predict how the bulbs will compare in terms of their brightness. For this situation, which of the following statements are true? Select all that apply.
1 )Bulb A will be brighter than bulb B.
2 )Bulb A will be dimmer than bulb B.
3 )Bulbs A and B will be equally bright.
4 )Bulb A will be brighter than bulb C.
5 )Bulb A will be dimmer than bulb C.
6 )Bulbs A and C will be equally bright.
7 )Bulb B will be brighter than bulb C.
8 )Bulb B will be dimmer than bulb C.
9 )Bulbs B and C will be equally bright.

(b) With the circuit still turned on, what will happen to the brightness of each bulb when the switch is closed? Select all the correct statements from the list below.

1 )The brightness of bulb A will increase.
2 )The brightness of bulb A will decrease.
3 )The brightness of bulb A will remain the same.
4 )The brightness of bulb B will increase.
5 )The brightness of bulb B will decrease.
6 )The brightness of bulb B will remain the same.
7 )The brightness of bulb C will increase.
8 )The brightness of bulb C will decrease.
9 )The brightness of bulb C will remain the same.
