A battery doesn't see a series or parallel circuit. It just supplies the current that is demanded by the load be it a series or parallel load. Visualize that a single load across a battery is both a series and parallel load to the battery.

Does a battery operated toy have a parallel circuit?

Yes, a battery operated toy has a parallel circuit - the battery is in parallel with the toy. In fact, this is true for any system where there is a single equivalent source and a single equivalent load. While it is true that this is also a series circuit, by Kirchoff's current and voltage laws a simple series circuit is also a simple parallel circuit.

A flashlight is an example of a series circuit; a battery in series with a switch in series with a bulb.


What lasts longer a series circuit or a parallel curcuit?

They will both last for the same amount of time. In both situations all of the battery's power is being used, but in parallel, you can separately control the individual loads that you put on the circuit with switches. Hope that helps


Types of electrical circuit?

Series and parallelImproved AnswerThere are four categories of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex. 'Complex' is a 'catch-all', used to describe circuits that are not series, parallel, or series-parallel. An example of a 'complex' circuit is a Wheatstone Bridge circuit.


What is the schematic symbol for a battery and how is it represented in electronic circuit diagrams?

The schematic symbol for a battery is typically represented as a series of parallel lines, with a longer line indicating the positive terminal and a shorter line indicating the negative terminal. In electronic circuit diagrams, the battery symbol is used to show the power source for the circuit.
