Question

9.0 v
m
which image represents the circuit diagram?

Explanation:

1. First, analyze the given circuit diagram: It has a 9.0V battery, a switch, and a motor (M) connected in a parallel configuration where the switch is on a separate branch, creating a short path for current that bypasses the motor.
2. Eliminate the third option immediately, as it uses a light bulb instead of a motor, which does not match the diagram's component (M = motor).
3. Compare the first and second options: The first option shows the switch and motor connected in series (current flows through both). The second option shows the switch wired in parallel with the motor, directly connecting the battery's positive and negative terminals when closed, which matches the parallel short-circuit structure of the given diagram.

Answer:

The second image (middle image with battery, switch, and fan motor wired in parallel)
