Create this circuit in the PhET simulator (https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/circuit-construction-kit-dc/latest/circuit-construction-kit-dc_en.html):
Use light bulbs in your simulation for each of the resistors. Set the voltage and resistance for each component as noted in the picture. Fill out the chart by finding the unknowns using the ammeter and voltmeter in the simulator. Upload a screenshot of your circuit with the ammeter hovering over the wire demonstrating measured current.

Now, adjust your circuit to look like this picture (note that one new bulb has been added):
Again, fill out the chart by taking measurements with the ammeter and voltmeter. Upload a new screenshot of your circuit with the ammeter hovering over the wire demonstrating measured current.
