Two light bulbs of the same resistance are connected in series. Choose the correct answer. Select one: The equivalent resistance is larger than the total resistance for two light bulbs. The equivalent resistance is equal to the sum of resistances of two light bulbs. The equivalent resistance is less than the resistance of one light bulb. The equivalent resistance is half of the sum of total resistances for the two light bulbs. The equivalent resistance is larger than the resistance of one light bulb but less than the total resistance for two light bulbs.
