(b) Yakub made a circuit as shown in the figure. He observed that the bulb did
not glow but on bringing a compass needle near it shows deflection.
He was quite confused that if current is flowing through the circuit, then why
the bulb is not glowing.
Meanwhile his friend Sourav arrived and suggested him to add one more cell
in the circuit. The bulb, then started glowing.
