If you remove one bulb from a string of lights all the remaining lights will go out. are the lights in a series circuit or parallel circuit Explain?
Removing any bulb breaks the continuity of a series circuit, stopping the flow of electrical current. Removing a bulb in a parallel circuit does not interrupt the current flow, so the remaining lights continue to conduct electrical current.
What constitutes a complete electrical circuit?
A complete electrical circuit occurs when it is possible for electrical current to flow through the electrical devices in it.
The opposition to the flow of electrical current?
In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.
What kind of circuit allows a current to flow through?
Any complete circuit. ==== An electrical circuit.
What component resists flow of current in an electrical circuit?
transistor
What type of electrical circuit will be broken if a wire breaks?
Current will cease to flow in a series electrical circuit.
What is a single path for electric current to flow through?
is called an electrical circuit

What electrical quantity is the same throughout a series circuit?
In any series circuit, there is one and only one path for current flow. All the current flowing in the circuit will flow through all of the devices in that circuit. A break at any point in the circuit will cause current flow to cease. Lastly, it is current that is the same at any point in the circuit where we'd care to measure it.
How are electrical current and circuits related?
Electrical currents require a circuit to flow. If the circuit is broken, then the electrical current will not flow. A switch is a prime example of this principle. When a switch is off, the circuit is broken. However, when it is turned, the circuit is completed and allows for the electrical current to flow through the appliance.
What constitutes a complete electrical circuit?
A complete electrical circuit occurs when it is possible for electrical current to flow through the electrical devices in it.
The opposition to the flow of electrical current?
In a DC circuit . . . resistance. In an AC circuit . . . impedance.
Why does electrical current flow along a single path in a series circuit and more than one path in a parallel circuit?
Because there is only a single path in series circuit and many paths in parallel circuit.
What is a closed path through which current can flow?
A closed path through which a current can flow is called a circuit. Electric Circuit:)
What is the strength of current in each resistor of a series circuit?
The current in each resistor in a series circuit is the same. Kirchoff's Current Law states that the sum of the currents entering a node must add up to zero. The connection between two resistors in a series circuit is a node. The current entering the node from one resistor is equal to the current leaving the node into the next resistor.
What is closed path throuth which current can flow?
An electric circuit.
In a series circuit if 1 bulb goes out the circuit is considered open or closed?
If one bulb in a series circuit goes out, then current can't flow anywherein the circuit. A circuit in which current can't flow is an open circuit.
