1.) A box has three identical bulbs mounted on its top with the wires hidden inside the box. Initially bulb A is the brightest and bulbs B and C are equally bright. If you unscrew A, bulbs B and C go out. If you unscrew B, A gets dimmer and C gets brighter so that A and C are equally bright. If you unscrew C, A gets dimmer and B gets brighter so that A and B are equally bright. If you unscrew B and C, A goes out. How are the bulbs wired?
