If ammeter 1 (A1) and Ammeter 3 (A3) have a current of 4.2 A what is the current through Ammeter (A2)?
Explain yout answer

4.2
The current is the same everywhere in a series circuit: The electric charges are moving at the same speed in all parts of the circuit.
Are the lamps in series or in parallel?

In series
Are the lamps in series or in parallel?

In parallel
Which lamp is in parallel with lamp Q

Lamp P
If the current through lamp Q and P was 0.2 A, what would be the current through lamp R?
Explain your answer?

0.4 A
The charges would split when they were moving through lmaps Q and P because they are on different branches but come back together through lamp R.
