No, series parallel, as it implies has components of the circuit configured in both series and parallel. This is typically done to achieve a desired resistance in the circuit. A parallel circuit is a circuit that only has the components hooked in parallel, which would result in a lower total resistance in the circuit than if the components were hooked up in a series parallel configuration.

Is the current the same everywhere in the parallel circuit?

No. The current in a series circuit is the same everywhere. The voltage across a parallel circuit is the same.


What are differences between series and parallel circuits?

In series circuits current will be the same through out the circuit. So whereever we connect the ammeter the same current is registered. But in parallel circuit current will be different in different lines. In parallel circuits the potential difference will be the same but in series pd will be different.


Which is brighter series or parallel?

Parallel. Coz all the elements will get same voltages from the sources. in case of series connection, the voltage is divided between all elements.


If everything else is the same will 2 bulbs be brighter wired in series or wired in parallel?

In parallel.


Can i wire a battery in series and parallel at the same time?

yes


What is series - parallel connection?

In series connection current will be same. in parrel connection voltage will be same and current wil be varying


What is the effect of pump installation in series and parallel connection?

if you connect the pumps in series, it will add head at the same flow rate. Inversely, in parallel connection, double the flow rate at same head.


Is the real world load seriesparallel or series-parallel?

A single load is neither series nor parallel. But in a house, for example, all the loads are in parallel because they all work on the same voltage.


How many paths do electrons have to follow?

In a series circuit all the components are connected in series, which means that the same current has to flow through all of them. In a parallel circuit with all the components in parallel, the same voltage is across each of them. Some circuits can be a mixture of series and parallel.


What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?

There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.


Is voltage the same at all points in a circuit?

Yes it is in series and parallel


In which case will there be more current in each of three lamps- if they are connected to the same battery in series or in parallel?

more current will be in case of parallel because in series combination resistence is greater with respect to parallel combination
