Which bulb is brighter a 60W or 30W in a series then in parallel then separate circuits?

In series, a 30W incandescent lamp dissipates twice as much power as a 60W unit
designed for the same supply voltage. While it's difficult to estimate how much of
that power will be in the form of visible light and how much as heat, we're guessing
that their comparative visual brightnesses will track the total power dissipation of
each lamp, so the 30W will appear brighter than the 60W.
In parallel, or in separate, independent, unconnected circuits on separate power supplies,
the 60W lamp is brighter than the 30W unit designed for the same supply voltage.
Note: Plugging two bulbs into any two separate outlets in the same house
normally connects them in parallel.

What is the name of the circuit that is neither parallel nor series?
FEEDBACK CIRCUITS. In addition to parallel and series circuits, there are also closed and short circuits.
What are the types of circuits?
The types of circuits are series and parallel!
Do bedrooms have parallel or series circuits?
in bedrooms we have parallel circuit.
Can a circuit be a combination of series connections and parallel conections?
Yes. There are also more complicated circuits, that can't be described ONLY as a combination of series and parallel circuits - basically, circuits that contain several loops.
Where do you put the switch in a parallel circuit?
Switches used in electrical circuits are wired in series with either a parallel or series load. In parallel loads, the switch is upstream from the parallel circuit, so that the switch will shut off all of the parallel circuits.
If both series and parallel circuits have 1 cell and 3 lamps, which type of circuit would be brighter?
Parallel circuit.

Which circuits is better series or parallel?
parallel is better
What are the 2 main electrical circuits?
The two basic types of circuits are series and parallel circuits.
Which type of Electrical wiring is used in your homes and offices?
Parallel for main circuits and series parallel for lighting circuits.
Do bedrooms have parallel or series circuits?
in bedrooms we have parallel circuit.
How are switches in electrical circuits usually wired?
They are wired in parallel, series and series - parallel.
What are the three basic different types of electrical circuits?
In electronics DC stands for direct current. There are three types of circuits in this current. They are the closed, open, and series circuits.
What are the type of circuits used in wiring installation?
The two main types are series and parallel circuits. From these two circuits comes combinations of different series parallel circuits depending on what end results you need.
What are types of home circuits?
series and parallel
What type of circuits are used in most homes-parallel-or-series?
parallel
