Question
**Figure 1:**

The diagram consists of two circuit configurations labeled (A) and (B).

**Configuration (A):**
- The circuit includes a switch labeled "S."
- A 6V battery is connected in series with a 1-ohm resistor and a 1 farad capacitor.
- The components are connected in a loop, with the switch enabling or disabling the circuit.

**Configuration (B):**
- This circuit also includes a switch labeled "S."
- A 6V battery is connected in series with a 4-ohm resistor.
- The circuit branches out, where a parallel configuration includes a 1 farad capacitor and two resistors (2 ohms and 8 ohms respectively).
- The switch position determines whether the circuit is closed or open.

**Explanation:**
- Both configurations demonstrate simple electrical circuits often used to illustrate fundamental principles of circuit design, including series and parallel configurations, and the effect of capacitors and resistors within a circuit. 
- Understanding these configurations helps in analyzing how voltage and current behave in various circuit elements.
