It depends on the circuit. If it is a constant-current circuit, any light bulbs connected in parallel with it will become brighter.

If it is a constant-voltage circuit like a typical household circuit, nothing will happen.

Any connected in series with it will go out.

Are there supposed to be light bulbs in a parallel circuit?

Yes, light bulbs can be powered by a parallel circuit.


Is a series or parallel circuit used for filament light bulbs?

parallel


If you have 3 light bulbs on a single circuit what kind of circuit do you have?

Parallel


What happens to the voltages across the light bulbs in a parallel circuit change as more light bulbs are added to the circuit?

nothing


If you have three light bulbs on a circuit but all the bulbs have a different electrical path what kind of circuit do you have?

Parallel.


What would happen if you added one battery to a parallel circuit of two light bulbs?

Adding one more battery to a parallel circuit of two light bulbs would increase the voltage across the entire circuit. This would cause both light bulbs to shine more brightly as they receive more power. It will not affect the current flowing through the circuit but will boost the overall energy provided to the circuit.


Will adding light bulbs to a parallel circuit causes all of the light bukbs to shine less brightly?

No. In a parallel circuit, the resistance gets cut in half, so logically the bulbs would do the opposite and get brighter.


What two circuits one series and one parallel use light bulbs to provide resistance. Both circuits have the same number of light bulbs?

Series circuit gives higher resistance compared to parallel circuit.


In a combination of a parallel and series circuit what would happen if a light bulb was unscrewed?

In a parallel circuit nothing would happen. All the other light bulbs would remain on since there is an alternative path for current to flow. In a series circuit the entire circuit would be de-energized and all the bulbs would go out.


Which type of circuit a series circuit or a parallel circuit would allow the light bulbs to burn brighter?

In a parallel circuit, each light bulb would receive the full voltage of the power source, allowing them to burn brighter compared to a series circuit where the voltage is divided among the bulbs.


What is the use of parallel circuit?

It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit... for example: 1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out 2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on


When a circuit of light bulbs is wired in such a way that if one light bulb burns out the rest stay lit it is called a circuit?

That would be a parallel circuit.
