Suppose you’re wiring a dollhouse for a child. You want the lights in the dollhouse to be as bright as possible. You have a choice between two wires. Wire X is slightly thicker than wire Y. Which wire should you choose for your dollhouse? Why?

You should choose wire X, the slightly thicker wire, for your dollhouse. Thicker wires have lower electrical resistance, which allows for more current to flow through them and results in brighter lights. Thicker wires also are less likely to overheat, reducing the risk of a fire hazard. Ultimately, wire X would be the better choice for ensuring the lights in the dollhouse are as bright as possible and for safety reasons.
