As a series circuit, as asked, all bulbs will go off because of that just one bulb.

The current is 0.4 A and the bulb in the circuit is bright. What will happen to the brightness of the bulb if you put another bulb in series in the circuit?
ANSWER: The brightness of both bulbs will decrease. If the bulbs are identical the current will decrease to 0.2 Amps. This is a simple series resistive circuit, the more bulbs you add in series both the amperage and bulb brightness will continue to go down.
You are building a string of lights using several bulbs how is the brightness of the lights related to whether you connect the bulbs in series or in parallel?
Overall brightness (not individual bulbs' brightness) will increase when we connect them in parallel & it will decrease when we connect them in series.
What happens to the brightness of the light bulbs in a series with a heater?
They dim as the total resistance of series of resistances is the sum of the resistances; and current = V/R.
How would you compare the brightness of the bulbs as you increase the number of bulbs?
-- If the bulbs are in parallel, then the addition of a bulb has no effect on the brightness of those that were there before. -- If the bulbs are in series, then the addition of a bulb causes the brightness of those that were there before to decrease. (And I wasn't even there when you did the experiment !)
How does the brightness of each bulb in a parallel circuit compare to the brightness of the bulb in a series circuit?
u see the light bulbs on a series circuit's brightness evolves and the brightness on a parallel's circuit dont
When loads are in series the brightness of the bulbs will?
at like 1minute after each other.
Is it true that when a round bulb and a long are connected in a parallel circuit the long bulb is brighter than the round bulb?
Bulbs that are connected in parallel would be the same brightness as a bulb on its own. If the bulbs were in series with other bulbs, then they would be dimmer. The voltage would drop across a series.
Light bulbs in a series circuit have the same brightness?
If they have the same resistance they will. Kirchhoff's' Law.
If you add an extra bulb to your series circuit what will happen to the brightness of the bulbs?
The bulb is dim.Because,the voltage is drops in series connection so you add more bulbs in series the last bulb got low voltage that reason for the bulb is dim
Three identical bulbs are connected in series labeled A B and C to a battery which bulb is the brightest?
If three identical bulbs are connected in parallel to a battery, all three bulbs would have equal brightness.Kirchoff's voltage law states that the signed sum of the voltage drops around a series circuit is zero. A consequence of this is that, in a parallel circuit, the voltage across each parallel element is the same.There are effectively 6 series circuits in this example - battery and A - battery and B - battery and C - A and B - A and C - and B and C. These six combinations are also parallel circuits, and they are also in parallel with each other.
Why do several 40watt and 220volt lamps not light to full brilliance when in series?
To get full brightness, the rated voltage has to be applied across the bulb. When several bulbs are connected in series, the voltage gets devided among these sevral bulbs and correct rated voltage will not be applied acros each bulb, hence the brightness reduces.
Would the brightness of a parallel circuit of 3 globes increase or decrease when a fourth is added?
The brightness would remain constant but the power draw will increase. If the circuit was series wired, the brightness would go down as you added bulbs.
