Answer 4

SERIES

Question 5

Answer 5

The resistance in the charger creates heat

Question 6

Answer 6

Fuses and circuit breakers are made to break the circuit if they sense that too much current is being drawn preventing fires

Question 7

If when you plug in an old string of decorative lights connected in series, non of the bulbs light, does this mean all the bulbs burnt out?
