If two or more circuit elements are connected in series, the current must pass through each of them in turn. If two or more circuit elements are connected in parallel, that means there is a "fork in the road". In this case, part of the current will pass through one element, and part, through another one.
The current cannot pass through the oils.Oils are moleculer so molecules cannot conduct electric current
coz wood is an insulator, where there's no free electrons n thus current pass through the wood :)
If the bulb lights up then electricity is passing through the bulb. If the bulb doesn't light up then electricity is not passing through.
no.
initially when current pass through the filament

A 'series circuit' does that.
you probably have a bulb out or, check the wiring to that bulb if the bulb appears to be okay. If it is neither of those the connector may need to be cleaned. Sometimes they get a little oxidation on them and won't allow the current to pass through to the bulb. Good luck.
Yes, we can boil water if we pass enough current through it......
Yes.
Resistance in the circuit makes it difficult for current to pass through.
9 volts====================The question is a bit convoluted.The power dissipated by the bulb and the current through itboth depend on the voltage applied across it.In the real world, the way to ask this question would have to be:If a light bulb dissipates 4.5 W of power when 0.5 A of currentpasses through it, what voltage has been applied across it ?(And, for extra credit, what is the bulb's effective resistance ?)

All the bulbs should be the same brightness because they are all receiving the same voltage, which would be half the voltage of the original source. To visualize why this is the case, imagine the electrons moving through the circuit. The electrons can take two paths through the circuit but either way they have to pass through two light bulbs. The two bulbs in parallel may, however, appear slightly dimmer because the current is split between them and restricted by the third bulb. Assume that the resistance of all light bulbs are equal. The current through the light bulbs in parallel will be 1/2 that through the one in series as it is split equally between the two of them. The intensity of each light bulb is proportional to the power through each bulb. Power is I2R. So, if the total current is 1 amp the power through the series light bulb is R, where the power through the parallel light bulbs will be 1/4R. Therefore the intensity of the parallel bulbs will be 1/4 the light bulb in series.
Electricity has to pass through the filament which, when it gets hot enough from resistance to the current, begins to glow and give off light.
They produce light by using mercury vapor :D=======================Answer #2:Some (not many) pass electric current through mercury vapor, causing it to glow violet.Some pass electric current through sodium vapor, causing it to glow yellow.Some pass electric current through a thin wire, causing it to heat and glow ...a process is identical to that in every incandescent light bulb in your house.Some burn natural gas.
