What is the difference between a series and parallel circuit?
because the series has only one path that electricity flows and parallel circuit has one or more pathways that electricity can flow
What happens if you add more loads to a series circuit?
When you have multiple loads in a series, the resistance of the loads is added together allowing very little current to flow through the circuit to power any of the loads, making for a low amperage circuit. If you have your loads in parellel, the resistance of the loads in the circuit is subtracted which allows more current to flow, making for a high amperage circuit.
What is the difference between a parallel and series circuit?
One is parallel and one is not
What is the difference between a series and a parallel circuit?
A series circuit has all its elements connected in a sequence so the same current flows through each the same while A parallel circuit has many paths for current to travel and more than one resistor, outlet or switch.An example for each would be Christmas lights. If you take out one light bulb on a series circuit all the lights will go out because of an uncomplete circuit. If it were parallel circuit the rest of the lights wouldn't go out because in a parallel circuit there is more than one path for the current to follow. This allows you to take one out without all the others turning off. It would save you alot of trouble on Christmas if one light burned out!A; No difference as far as a source is concerned it is load of different type
What is the difference between a series circuit and a parallel?
Series circuit has the light bulbs like this: -------------------Ii------------------- I I I I I I I O O I I I I O -----------O---------------O---------I If you unscrew one bulb, the whole, all the others will stop working too. Parallel has the bulbs like this: -------------------Ii------------------- I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ---------------------------------------- I I I-------O------I I I I I I-------O-------I
What is a circuit that is wired in one direct pathway?
A series circuit/
What is the difference between series and parralal circuit?
difference between series is one pathway through circuit,difference between parralal is more then one pathway through circuit.
What circuits of electricity flow in one pathway?
Series Circuit.
Is it true that a parallel circuit has more than one pathway unlike a series circuit?
yes
What does parallel and series circuit mean?
Parallel means 2 straight lines and series circuit means a circuit with only one pathway for current flow
How many electric paths do you have in a series circuit?
Depending on what type of circuit your talking about.If the circuit is in parallel,series/parallel,then your talking as many loads that there are on the circuit.However if your dealing with the basic series,then there are the going out and coming back in. so two.and that's not including the ground path. ANSWER :Only one path and there is from a positive to a less positive potential
How many complete circuit in a series circuit?
one
What kind of circuit do you have when all resistors are in a single pathway?
its called a complete circuit
Does a flashlight use parallel circuit or series circuit?
Well it can depend on how many bulbs it has etc, but generally it would be a series circuit.
What is closed pathway through which electricity can travel?
a circuit.
An electric what is a pathway for electric current?
A closed circuit.
What is a pathway that electricity travels through called?
A circuit
