1. Construct a circuit using three connecting wires, two identical bulbs and two batteries such
that when one bulb is unscrewed the other bulb goes out also. Once you’re done with the task,
disconnect the battery from the circuit. . Draw your setup .Label this Circuit A. Trace the paths
of current in Circuit A.
