What circuit would be inside a torch?
you have to collect a battery(cell), battery case, 4 wires, and as many bulbs as you ewould like. now link them together. alexia age 12A very good answer Alexia.Here's how I would answer it.Connect, in series, a cell or battery, a bulb with a voltage rating which corresponds to the cell/battery voltage, and, optionally, a switch.
What would happen if you added another battery to a simple circuit of two wires a battery and a bulb?
SERIES: A. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Aiding" configuration, the bulb would get brighter. However, it would probably burn out very shortly, if not immediately, depending on the power rating of the bulb. Flashlight batteries such as two and three cell flashlights are usually series aiding. B. If the additional battery is added to the circuit in a "Series Opposing" configuration, the intensity of the bulb would decrease or go out completely if the opposing voltages are equal. (you can do a little experiment with a three or four cell flashlight by reversing the polarity of one or more of the batteries. The reversed battery will be series opposing and cancel 1.5 volts of the other batteries.) PARALLEL: If batteries are added to the circuit in parallel, the intensity of the bulb would remain the same but the batteries would last longer. Be sure the battery voltages are the same when adding batteries in parallel.
Give two possible reasons why their circuit does not work when they close the switch?
The cell has no more electricity and the bulb has blown.
Can a series circuit have more than one cell?
You can have any amount, it's the same as a parallel circuit! x
What will happen if more bulbs are added to a circuit with one cell?
YESAnswerNot necessarily. The current depends on the potential difference and the load resistance. If you connect cells in parallel, you do not effect its voltage or the load, so the current is unaffected (although the battery's current 'capacity' will increase). If you connect the cells in series, then you will increase the voltage and the current will increase.
What do we call it when electricity flows from a cell or battery through a bulb and back to the cell or battery?
Closed circuit.
What are componenets of a circuit?
The components of a circuit are:- 1: A battery or cell 2: A switch 3: A bulb 4: A wire
What part of a circuit is the light bulb?
It has components that are arranged end to end in order to produce light.
How can you make a bulb in a circuit brighter?
you can make it brighter by adding another battery/cell
Why doesn't a bulb light up until you press the switch?
A switch completes the circuit, allowing electricity to pass from the cell (battery) to the bulb.

What does cell do in an electric circuit?
the cell is the battery.
How do you light a light bulb with a six volt battery?
You'll need two pieces of wire... and im pretty sure that if you take one end of the wire and put it on the very bottom of the light bulb and the other end of the wire and put it on the positive side of the battery, and take the other wire and put it on the threads of the light bulb and the other end of the wire and put that end on the negative side of the battery, you should get light. (I may have the polarities [positive & negative] mixed up).
Why are two bulbs in parallel bright when you build a parallel circuit with two bulbs a one d- cell battery?
Two bulbs in parallel are brighter than the same two bulbs in series, given the same potential voltage, because there is twice the available voltage to each bulb.
What will happen if you attach a wire from the bulb to a D-Cell battery?
If you attaach only one wire nothing happens. You need to use two wires to form a circuit.
You need a cell in the circuit because?
Assuming you are talking about electrical circuits: "Cell" is the name given for a battery. Without a cell in the circuit, there is no supply of electricity. Therefore there is no electric circuit.
What is the battery life of a 9 volt battery on a 3.5 volt of a bulb?
The battery life (assuming it is a primary cell) is determined by the Ampere-hour drawn from it. You cannot connect a 3.5V bulb directly to a 9V battery. The bulb will fuse.
