parallel circuit
A series/parallel circuit.
Simple parts of a circuit are switches, light bulb, battery and connecting wires.
parallel
Any circuit that even has more than one branch is a parallel one.
Only if you install separate switches for each part of the circuit. The whole point of a parallel circuit - is that both parts of the circuit are controlled by the same switch.
Any circuit that even has more than one branch is a parallel one.
Series circuit: one path. Parallel circuit: One path for each branch (two or more).
When all parts of a circuit are composed of conducting materials, the circuit is said to be closed.One condition could be a closed circuit, however it could be open if the components are not assembled or are assembled incorrectly.
The parallel is called the equator.
A relay race would be an example of a series circuit. Since every runner relies on the runner before him/her to continue on, if one runner fails the rest of them fail. With a series circuit, if one part of the circuit fails, all of the parts before and after it fails. A parallel circuit does not completely fail if one or more of the parts fail.
One of the parallel circuit focal points is that it guarantees all parts of the circuit have the same voltage as the source. Case in point, the second or each extra light added to the circuit would have the same shine.
A circuit in which all parts are connected in a single loop
