If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
When several light bulbs are connected in a series circuit what will happen if on bulb burns out?
Hmm. well, it's a series circuit, so I would think they would potentially follow after the one that went out, right?? Yeah, for sure!
What is the effect if a bulb is broken in a parallel or series circuit?
parallel circuit: Providing that the breakage does not result in a short circuit the other bulbs will still light. series circuit: If the breakage results in a short circuit through the bulb the other bulbs will light more brightly. If the breakage results in a breakage of the connection through the bulb then the other bulbs will not light.
Is a series or parallel circuit used for filament light bulbs?
parallel
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.
This circuit is a series circuit because?
the same current flows through both light bulbs
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.
What type of circuit is it called when light bulbs one after another are connected?
In series
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.
What would happen if one of a set of light bulbs burn out in a parallel circuit?
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.
What would be different about the circuit if a resistor were added in series with the light bulbs?
The total current in the circuit will decrease.
What happens if you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
The circuit will have the flow of electricity interrupted.
