illustration, the current flowthrough all of the lamps, Fig. 2, is the same, because figure 2. each lamp offers the same resistance. But if wearrange a number of lamps as in Fig. 3, the lamps inseries will offer twice as much resistance as the single ELECTRICITY FOR ENGINEERS 17 A, OB FIGURE 3.… … FIGURE 4. divides between B and C in proportion to their con-ductivities. If B has a resistance of no ohms and C220 ohms, then B will carry two parts of the currentand C only one. The combined resistance of alllamps, Fig. 2, equals the resistance of one lampdivided by the number of lamps. The…
