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

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


What will happen if you try to complete a circut by joining the glass of a light bulb to the batttery?

The glass of the light bulb is not conductive, so the circuit would not be completed. You would need to join the wires to the positive and negative contacts on the base of the bulb for the circuit to work.


How can you change a closed circuit to a open circuit?

u need a battery 2 wires and a light bulb. Step 1. Get the 2 wires and connect them to the battery step 2. connect the other side at the bottom of the light bulb the light bulb should light if it doesn't :(

How do you wire a high watt light to a battery?

Need more information. Wattage of bulb, voltage of bulb, voltage of battery and wire size of the circuit.


A complete what is needed to make a bulb light up?

To make a light bulb light up, you need a closed electrical circuit. This circuit typically consists of a power source (such as a battery or outlet), wires to carry the electricity, and the light bulb itself. When the circuit is complete and electricity flows through the bulb, it will produce light.


How can I create a simple light bulb circuit using basic components?

To create a simple light bulb circuit, you will need a power source (such as a battery), a light bulb, and wires to connect them. Connect one end of the wire to the positive terminal of the battery, and the other end to one terminal of the light bulb. Then, connect another wire from the other terminal of the light bulb to the negative terminal of the battery. When the circuit is complete, the light bulb should light up. Make sure to use the correct voltage for the light bulb to avoid damaging it.


Why do we need a complete circuit for the bulb to light?

Its a power source such as a battery - Wire from the Positive on the battery to one contact on the lamp and a wire from the Negative of the battery to the other contact on the bulb


How do you make a light bulb light up using a 1.5 volt battery?

If it is a 1.5 volt bulb you can connect it through a series circuit directly to your battery. If the bulb is not made to run on 1.5 volts and needs another voltage, it may not light up!


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

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


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

To make a simple series circuit to light a bulb, the simplest components are a power source (such as a battery); a switch (to turn the power on or off); the bulb (obviously !); and some wires to connect everything together.


What would happen if you didn't have a light bulb for a circuit?

it would be ok in a circuit which didn't need a light bulb.
