What else can I help you with?
What would happen if another bulb was added to another series circuit?
In a series circuit, if another bulb is added, it is going to dim.
If a new bulb is added and the electrical circuit becomes dimmer is it a parallel circuit?
No it's series circuit.
What happens to the potential difference of a bulb that burns out in series circuit?
The whole circuit fails - because the action of the bulb blowing cuts the circuit.
What happens to a bulb when more wires are added to the circuit?
it trens off
What happens to the brightness of the bulb when the second bulb is put into a series circuit?
it should become dimmer
What happens if one bulb in a series circuit burned out?
In a series circuit, all bulbs are necessary to complete the circuit. If one bulb goes out, the circuit is broken, so none of the bulbs would light up.
If you unscrewed the second bulb in the parallel circuit when it was on what happens to the first?
Nothing. That's why it's a parallel circuit. If it was a series circuit, then the first bulb would go out.
What happens to the light bulb when extra dry cells are added to the series circuit?
When extra dry cells are added to a series circuit containing a light bulb, the total voltage supplied to the circuit increases. This higher voltage can lead to an increase in the current flowing through the circuit, which may cause the light bulb to shine brighter. However, if the voltage exceeds the bulb's rated capacity, it could overheat and potentially burn out or become damaged. Therefore, caution should be taken when adding extra cells to avoid damaging the bulb.
If you unscrewed the second bulb in the series circuit when it was on explain what happens to the first?
Unscrewing any bulb in a series circuit turns them all off. This is the same as opening the switch that controls them.
When a second identical bulb is added in series to a circuit with a single bulb the resistance of the circuit?
When a second identical bulb is added in series to a circuit with a single bulb, the total resistance of the circuit increases. This is because the resistance of each bulb adds together, resulting in a total resistance that is double that of a single bulb. Consequently, the overall current flowing through the circuit decreases, as per Ohm's Law (V = IR), assuming the voltage source remains constant.
What happens to the voltage as more bulbs are added in series?
The voltage in a series circuit is divided among the bulbs, so as more bulbs are added in series, each bulb receives less voltage. This causes the brightness of each bulb to decrease compared to when fewer bulbs are present.
What happens if you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
If you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit, it will cause an open circuit, which will break the flow of current in the circuit. As a result, all other bulbs in the series circuit will also turn off because there is no longer a complete path for the electricity to flow.
