Compared with the amount of current in the filament of a lamp, the amount of current in the connecting wire is

D. the same.

As per the rule, the amount of current in devices connected in series is equal. here in the given situation, the wire is in series with the filament. that is the reason that the current in filament and wire is same.

hence the correct choice is D)

Ashleigh Farley · Answer 2

D. the same.

Explanation:

The amount od current that flows through the filament of a lamp is actually the same that it would be compared with the amount of current that is flowing though the connecting wire, unless the lamp has a kind of resitor where it downgrades the amount of current befor it passes through the filament of the lamp, the currecnt should be the same.
