Question

True or False: Charge is consumed as it moves through the energy-transforming devices of the circuit. For instance, the amount of charge entering a light bulb in a second is less than that which exits the light bulb in a second.

Answer 1

Answer: False

Explanation:

FALSE - Charge is neither created nor destroyed, and as such, the amount of charge which enters a light bulb in a second is equal to the amount of charge which exits the light bulb in a second. This quantity (charge per second) is the current and it is everywhere the same in a circuit.
