6. [IEB 2005/11 HG] Three identical light bulbs \( A, B \) and \( C \) are connected in an electric circuit as shown in the diagram below.

In a series circuit with identical light bulbs, the current flowing through each bulb is the same, but the voltage across each bulb will be divided depending on the total voltage supplied. For instance, if you have a 12V battery supplying power to three bulbs, each bulb would receive 4V if they are identical, making them all glow equally bright. Now, if you were to connect these bulbs in parallel instead, each bulb would receive the full voltage of the battery. This means each would shine at its brightest, which can be a great idea for creating more light in a room. However, you should also consider the total current this setup draws, which can lead to overload if the circuit isn't designed to handle it!
