What is a seris and a parrel circut?
in a series circuit current flows through each resistor or light bulb and if one item burns out the complete circuit goes dead such were the old fashioned xmas tree lights. They were wire in series and if one light burned out you had to test each light bulb til you found the one burned out to get the whole string to work again. In a parallel circuit each resistor, motor, light bulb has its own ground so if you lost one light in a circuit the rest of them continue to burn.
What disadvantage does the series string type of Christmas tree lamp posses as compared to the 110V parallel type of Christmas tree lamp?
Series means that the same current passes through every component, so in Xmas lights, if there is one dead bulb or a break in the circuit, every light goes out. If Xmas lights were in parallel, they would each have a direct connection to the power supply, and would all be independent of each other.
