Solution
Analyzing the given data
- A bulb will not glow if the circuit is not complete, as we all know.
- Bulb A and B are directly joined by a conducting wire.
- If bulb B's filament breaks, the circuit would be incomplete, and will behave like an open circuit and the bulb A will not light up. The circuit will not work if any of the components that make up the circuit are broken.
- If another bulb is connected, it will not operate as well. Because a current does not have a complete path.
Hence, bulb A will not glow in this circuit.
