Which bulb will glow at first when 3 bulbs are connected in series and switch is connected after 1 bulb?

The bulb that will glow first when 3 bulbs are connected in series and the switch is connected after 1 bulb is the second bulb in the series. The current flows through all the bulbs in a series circuit, but the second bulb experiences the full potential difference first as it is connected directly to the source.


How can you connect bulbs in series?

A Bulb can be connected in a series in such a way that the energy source which is applied want to flow equally across the bulbs connected in series. A Bulb has to knobes or holds in which we supply the power. Assume one knob as a positive voltage absorbing source and other has a negative voltage absorbing source. When we connected in such a way that we can apply the voltage continuously in which the bulb will blow easily. When two or more bulbs are connected in series like end of the knob of one bulb i.e., negative to the next positive of the next bulb in series and negative of second bulb to the positive of the third bulb. Then the voltage splits equally across the bulbs connected.


Why 60w bulb more bright than 100w bulb connected in series?

There is insufficient information in the question to answer it. In series with what? Please restate the question.


What components do you need to make a simple series circuit to light on bulb?

You need a Battery, Light Bulb, Ammeter, Switch.


Are lamps in house connected to series or parallel?

They can be connected to either supply. A bulb in series that fails, will cause all the other bulbs to go out. A bulb in parallel that fails, will have no adverse effect on the other bulbs in that circuit


For bulbs connected in series the high watt bulb has high resistance?

No, the highest wattage bulb will have the lowest resistance.


Three bulbs of different watts are connected in series - which bulb will burn brightly - the higher wattage bulb or the lower?

lower wattage bulb


Is this your experiment with physics?

· to show the effect on a bulb if a resistance is connected in series with it in the circuit.


Connected in series or parallel will each bulb glow brighter?

In parallel, each bulb will have full voltage applied across them. However, in series, the voltage across each bulb won't be the same as supply voltage. Thereby, bulbs connected in parallel will glow brighter.


Does the number of batteries change the brightness of the bulb?

It will if the batteries are connected in series. If they are connected in parallel, the lamp will burn longer, but not brighter.


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


Why does a set of Christmas lamps turn off when one bulb is off?

because they are connected in series.
