Another example is a switch, bulb, solenoid, and a motor. When the switch is turned on current flows through the bulb, solenoid and motor simultaneously. This causes the bulb to light, the solenoid to the activated and the motors spindle to rotate, all at the same time.

Types of electrical circuit?
Series and parallelImproved AnswerThere are four categories of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex. 'Complex' is a 'catch-all', used to describe circuits that are not series, parallel, or series-parallel. An example of a 'complex' circuit is a Wheatstone Bridge circuit.
What is another name for a series -parallel circuit?
series other name current series and parallel is voltage
What is the key difference between a parallel circuit and a series circuit?
A series circuit pretty much runs in one direction, with each item which uses a load on that circuit one after another in a series. Should one load go out (a lamp, for example) then the entire series is defunct. A parallel circuit has more than one way to run, has a parallel or tandem circuit, so that if one load (our lamp, again) should fail, the electricity has another path (or more) to get to other loads on the circuit.
What is a circuit with two or more branches for current to flow called?
Parallel circuit
What is the best Example of series parallel circuit in vehicle?
fart
What is the opposite of a parallel circuit?
It is not the "opposite" but the major alternative to parallel, which is a series circuit. In parallel circuits, each component has its own circuit path (input to output), while in series the components are connected to one another in a line.
What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?
There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
What a circuit is called with more than one path through which electrons can flow?
The alternate paths are said to be "in parallel" (with one another).
How is a series circuit and a parallel circuit like their circuit names?
A series circuit is actually in series, but a parallel circuit, is Parallel
How much voltage does each branch of a parallel circuit?
Yes. The voltage across every branch of a parallel circuit is the same. (It may not be the supply voltage, if there's another component between the power supply and either or both ends of the parallel circuit.)
Which circuit has different parts of the circuit on separate branches?
Any circuit that even has more than one branch is a parallel one.
Is the electric circuit in your home a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
Parallel.
