A car might smell like propane while driving due to a leak in the fuel system, particularly if it's a vehicle that runs on propane or has components that use it. Alternatively, if the car is running on gasoline, a strong odor could indicate a fuel leak or an issue with the exhaust system. It's important to address this smell promptly, as it can pose safety hazards, including fire risks. If this occurs, it's advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic immediately.

Why would nothing happen if a bulb blew up in a parallel circuit?

The total current in the circuit would be reduced by the amount of current that was supplying the bulb. No other bulbs in the circuit would be affected. The comparison is driving on a highway. If you are driving on a two lane highway and the car in front of you slows down, you must slow down. If you are driving on a four lane highway you may drive beside (parallel) to the car, so if that car slowed down you would not be affected.


How do you find how much propane you have left using hot water and how does it work?

By pouring hot water on a propane cylinder you are heating the metal cylinder. The liquid propane in the cylinder is cold and forms condensation on the outside of the cylinder showing the level of propane remaining in the tank much like condensation forming on a glass of ice water on a hot day.
