What happens when a light bulb is unscrewed in a series circuit?
All other light bulbs will turn off due to the series circuit being broken. The electrons cannot travel all the way through, hence the current will also not flow in the circuit, switching off all the other bulbs too.CommentIt's worth pointing out that the full supply voltage will then appear across the lamp holder -so take care!
When one bulb goes out the other bulb remains lit in a(n)?
Parallel circuit
What happens when one light bulb goes out in a series?
The failed bulb breaks the circuit so no current can flow - so the other bulb goes out (but is OK).
What could you add to the circuit to control the bulb?
Switch
What job does a bulb do in a circuit?
The bulb converts energy from the power source into light and heat. It is the load in the circuit.
If you unscrewed the second bulb in the parallel circuit when it was on what happens to the first?
Nothing. That's why it's a parallel circuit. If it was a series circuit, then the first bulb would go out.
When one bulb is unscrewed in a series circuit does the other bulb stay lit?
You break the circuit and they both extinguish (go out).Answer: The circuit will open up causing the current to quit flowing to both bulbs therefore there will be no lighted bulbsCommentYou also have the full supply voltage appearing across the empty lampholder!
If you unscrewed the second bulb in the series circuit when it was on explain what happens to the first?
Unscrewing any bulb in a series circuit turns them all off. This is the same as opening the switch that controls them.
What happens when you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
When you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit, the circuit will break and all the other light bulbs in the circuit will turn off. This is because in a series circuit, the current flows through each component in succession, so removing one component interrupts the flow of current to the rest of the circuit.
Is it safe to leave a light bulb partially unscrewed?
It would not be dangerous to leave a light bulb partially unscrewed, however, there is some possibility that it will fall out of the socket. I would advise that if you don't want the bulb to be on, and you don't have a light switch, unscrew the bulb completely and put it away until you need it.
In which circuit did screwing out one bulb not influence the lighting of the other bulb?
A parallel circuit will not effect the other bulb. If the bulbs are in a series circuit the other bulb will not turn on.
What happens to the other bulb if one bulb burns out?
If one bulb burns out in a series circuit, the other bulb will also turn off since there is no longer a complete path for the current to flow. In a parallel circuit, the other bulb will continue to function normally as each bulb has its own separate path for the current to flow.
If the filament of the bulb is broken would the circuit be complete?
If the bulb's filament is broken, the whole circuit becomes open. If the bulb is in a series circuit or is the only bulb, the electricity would no longer flow. If the bulb is in a parallel circuit, along with other bulbs, then only the blown bulb would go out, and the other bulbs would still work.
What happen with the brightness of the bulb when one unscrewed in parallel?
Provided that the power supply is reasonably well regulated, the failureor removal of one device in a parallel circuit has no effect on the others.
What happens when a bulb gets fused?
When a bulb fuses the circuit is broken if it is on a serial circuit. If the bulb is on a parallel circuit, only the fused bulb will go out, any other bulb would remain lit. On a serial circuit, until the bulb is replaced by a new one, the circuit is not able to be used.
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.
What happens if you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit?
If you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit, it will cause an open circuit, which will break the flow of current in the circuit. As a result, all other bulbs in the series circuit will also turn off because there is no longer a complete path for the electricity to flow.
