6.  Steps
                  (a) Build three series circuits as follows:
                      (i)  A series circuit using a bulb and a dry cell.
                      (ii)  A series circuit using a bulb and two dry cells.
                      (iii)  A series circuit using a bulb and three dry cells.
                  (b)  Then, close the switches simultaneously.
                  (c)  Observe the brightness of the bulbs and record the results in the
                      table as shown below.

               8.  Conclusion

               (a)  Hypothesis is (accepted/not accepted).
               (b)  As the number of dry cells ______, the brightness of the bulbs also ______ .



             NUMBER OF BULB

                   Melia, in your opinion, does the brightness of the bulbs increase
                   by increasing the number of bulbs in this series circuit?

                                                                                No, Chan. In
                                                                                my opinion, the
                                                                                brightness of the
                                                                                bulbs in a series
                                                                                circuit will decrease
                                                                                if the number of
                                                                                bulbs increases.












                                        Let’s carry out the experiment again to
                                        prove the hypothesis above.
