How do you make a circuit with 3 bulbs 2 switches and and 2 batteries where the 1st switch controls the lighting of all the bulbs and the 2nd switch controls the lighting of the second bulb?

Connect the two batteries for the voltage needed. If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 12 volts, connect the batteries in parallel (negative to negative and positive to positive). If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 24 volts, connect the batteries in series (negative of one battery to positive of the other). Run a wire from batteries to first switch, then to two of the lights and the other switch (in parallel). From the second switch run a wire to the third light, then connect all three lights back to the battery.

What is the role of a switch?
A switch is installed in a circuit to stop the current flow. Without the switch there is no way to disconnect the operation of the circuit's load. In modern households the switch is a convenient way to control room lighting from a convenient location. Without switches the circuit power would have to be controlled from the service distribution panel's breakers. In this scenario the breaker would be in the same class as a switch.
How many switches can be connected to a contactor coil control circuit?
unlimited

What are the parts of parallel circuit?
Simple parts of a circuit are switches, light bulb, battery and connecting wires.
How are safety switches wired to the holding coil?
In control circuit wiring the safety switch is in series with the holding coil.
What type of circuit would be used in lighting circuit?
A lighting circuit would be a parallel circuit.
Why would receptacles have low voltage and the light switches no voltage on the same circuit?
lighting is usually on 15A breakers receptacles on 20A the probability is high that they are not on the same circuit. if they are the same circuit the probability is high that there hasn't been an electrical inspection
What are the switches in the circuit used for?
To open and close the circuit.

What number wire gauge for a single pole light switch?
In residential wiring applications the most used is 14 gauge wire for light switches as long as the circuit breaker or the fuse is 15A. If your lighting circuit is on a 20A fuse/circuit breaker then you need to use 12 gauge wire
What is the purpose of the batteries in the circuit?
The purpose of the battery in a circuit is to wive energy to the circuit
What is the function of an switch?
Auxiliary switches are separate switches with circuit which helps for the function of commutation of main switches of a converter.
