Each group's explanation of the anomalous situation.
| Type | Explanation of the anomalous situation | Group | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Succeeded in explaining the anomalous situation | In the actual experiment, the internal resistance of the battery is not zero. | G3, G6 | 5 group (71%) |
| In the actual experiment, the wire resistance is not zero. | G2 | ||
| In the actual experiment, the internal resistance of the battery and wire resistance are not zero. | G1 | ||
| Because the electromotive force of the two batteries connected in parallel is different. | G4 | ||
| Failed to explaining the anomalous situation | We don't know. Because of unknown variables. | G5, G7 | 2 group (29%) |
